Australian Wine Shipments To The U.S. Show Turnaround

Australian wine exports to the U.S. market registered a 12% increase to A$117 million ($85m) in the three months through September, with the key California (+20%), Florida (+56%) and New York (+14%) markets all showing double-digit gains. The shipment increase represented a reversal for the Australian wine category in the U.S., which has struggled in recent years, surrendering nearly 5 million cases from 2010-2014, according to Impact Databank. Despite the quarterly upturn, Aussie wine shipments to the U.S. were still down for the 12 months through September, posting a 4% decrease to A$428 million ($311m). Globally, Australia’s wine exports exhibited solid growth over the past 12 months, with double-digit increases in China and Hong Kong driving an 8% rise to A$1.96 billion ($1.42b).
