WBM Online reports that New Zealand exported 306.2 million litres of wine in the year to June 2026, compared with 288.8 million litres the previous year, while export value remained broadly flat at NZ$2.108 billion. The 2026 harvest fell by 15% to approximately 440,000 tonnes, bringing production closer to market demand. Although the article describes export volume growth as 8%, its quoted volumes imply approximately 6%, an inconsistency worth flagging.
