• As always, the wine industry faces many challenges from market issues, to planning and relationship issues to taxation/regulation and process issues.
• The 2010 winegrape crop was likely below average overall. This downward swing in production, coupled with increasing wine shipments could go a long way toward re-establishing overall market balance.
• Planting has slowed significantly at the high end. Most new vineyards in the state have been planted in the interior regions for value-priced wines.• Growers are planting mostly red grapes, but popular varieties for
planting include: Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Rubired & Muscat Alexander.
• Costs of acquisition/development/production continue to increase. Today’s market prices are mostly economically unsustainable.
