No. 5 Spain
Spain, the world’s third biggest wine producer, supplied about 86 million euros worth of wines to China last year, a drop of 34% compared with 2019.
Both its bottled and bulk wine exports to China slumped due to the country’s diminished demand, but Spanish wine’s value for money reputation might give it an opportunity to fill some of the Australian wine void.
I think that your info on San Pedro is not accurate
No news about being sold
Please clarify

Dear Natalie, thanks for your article … if possible could you mention the source of your data (value of China import for each country and if the number related only to below 2 litre bottled wine or wine category as whole thus including bulk …..
Hi, the data is from Chinese customs and it includes bottled and bulk wines.
Hi Natalie, thanks for fast reply … by chance do you have access to data for bottled wine (without bulk and sparkling) … before i remember CAWS publishes … many thanks indeed
Hi Natalie, i hope i am not abusing of your expertise … while i was looking for data on China import of bottled wine (below 2 litre) i used to check this site [ https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/nfL6M8xYb6L31bKBPcnfMg ] but seems it has not updates … maybe u are aware of some other source …
Thanks Natalie, this is fascinating reading, and it will be very interesting as to how the market in China for imported wines changes in the next 2 to 3 years.
