In January 2025, Georgia exported approximately 4.2 million liters of wine, marking a 28% decline compared to the same period last year.
News-Georgia reports that revenue from wine exports totaled $12.9 million, a decrease of 34.5%.
Shipments to Russia decreased by 47.6% compared to January 2024. Last year at this time, a record volume of exports to Russia was recorded.
Despite the decline, Russia remains the largest market for Georgian wine, accounting for 53.8% of total exports. China ranks second, followed by Poland in third place.
In 2024, wine production in Armenia decreased by 29%.
Zaruhi Muradyan, director of the Vine and Wine Foundation of Armenia, said in an interview with GastroVino, that the drop was due to winemakers not bottling a portion of their production. The decision stemmed from reduced demand, which in turn was caused by a decline in tourist flows to Armenia.
