Looking for free wine infographics, statistics and reports? Here is a comprehensive collection of links to reliable wine data resources from all around the world.

For anyone studying or researching wine, here is a list of essential resources that I have found useful. They are all completely free, and I have included the most recent updates in each case. This 2020 edition includes several new additions to the previous two editions of this article (see the 2018 and 2017 versions), which are marked with NEW below.

VITI AND VINI REPORTS - INTERNATIONAL

As ever, the OIV is the main publisher for global wine statistics. Their 2019 State Of Vitiviniculture World Market report is available in five languages and can be downloaded here. The California Wine Institute has its own sets of figures on their stats and facts page, including world production and consumption figures.

From 2013, Which Winegrapes Are Grown Where? is still the best free resource detailing the distribution of grapes around the world.
