OIV 2025 Report: Climate, Tariffs, and Economic Factors Reshape Global Wine Sector
The International Organisation of Vine and Wine (OIV) reports that a third consecutive year of low global wine production helped offset declining consumption in 2025, while trade faced headwinds from tariffs and economic factors.
The International Organisation of Vine and Wine (OIV) has released its annual report on the state of the global wine sector in 2025. According to the report, climate events across both hemispheres led to a low global harvest for the third consecutive year. This reduced output helped offset a continued decline in global wine consumption, which was driven by economic pressures and shifting habits in mature markets. Meanwhile, international trade volume and value decreased in 2025 due to tariff policies and economic conditions. However, overall global trade value remains significantly above pre-COVID-19 levels.
Key facts
- Climate events in both hemispheres caused a low global vintage for the third consecutive year in 2025.
- Global wine consumption fell due to economic pressures and changing consumption patterns in mature markets.
- Tariff policies and economic factors reduced global wine trade volume and value in 2025.
- Global trade value remains significantly higher than pre-COVID levels despite recent declines.
Why it matters
The report highlights how climate-driven production declines are currently offsetting reduced global consumption, while trade barriers and economic conditions require ongoing adaptation from beverage companies.
