WineNews reports that Italian wine exports totalled €7.7 billion in 2025, down 3.7% from 2024, while shipment volume fell 1.8% to 2.1 billion litres, confirming a softer global market after the previous year’s record. It also says the US, still Italy’s top market, dropped 9.1% by value, the UK slipped 3.8%, and Germany was broadly stable, showing that exporters are now leaning harder on steadier European demand while North American and Asian markets remain more fragile.
