Wine Industry Advisor reports that preliminary Eurostat figures show the value of EU wine exports fell by 13.2 per cent between January and April 2026 compared with the same period in 2025, while export volumes declined by 16.4 per cent. Intra-EU trade suffered more than shipments to markets outside the bloc, although the rate of decline eased compared with the first two months of the year. Only Cyprus, Estonia, Greece, Ireland and Poland achieved year-on-year growth in export value.
