The entire $55 billion California wine industry is, like the wine industry worldwide, experiencing an unprecedented downturn right now. No sector is immune — not the luxury tier, not the big conglomerates, not the upstart natural wines. Wine consumption fell 8.7% in 2023, according to leading industry analyst the Gomberg Fredrikson Report, a sobering reversal for an industry that had, for a quarter-century, taken annual growth for granted.

The California wine industry, including Napa Valley, boomed for 25 years. Then it entered a dramatic decline. Many wineries may go out of business.

Why the French are drinking less wine

A younger generation is rejecting old Mediterranean habits

No longer. In 2022 roughly 10% of French people drank wine every day, down from half in 1980. Back in 1960 the French drank an average of 116 litres of everyday wine per person. Between 2000 and 2018 that shrank from 28 litres to just 17. A glass of wine, let alone the once-familiar pichet, is an increasingly rare sight at the lunch table.

This is the best $15 red wine in the world - change my mind.

It has everything we love in wine. Excellent fruit, solid tannins, acidity and a finish that feels as if it lingers for days.

I have yet to taste ANY wine from around the world that delivers more bang for the buck.
