Among continents, European countries sold the highest dollar value of wine exported during 2024 with shipments worth $30.2 billion or 77.5% of the world’s total wine exports. Oceania’s international wine sales, led by Australia and New Zealand, came in at 7.8% ahead of Latin America at 6.1% excluding Mexico but including the Caribbean.
Exporters in Asia furnished 3.5% worth of worldwide wine exports, while suppliers in North America shipped 3.4% ahead of 1.8% of wine sales coming from Africa.
