Chile: Wine Annual
Chile’s wine production fell in CY2014 due to adverse weather condition during the growing season. For CY2015 increased production is expected as weather condition have improved during last spring in most growing areas. As of CY 2015, Chile has an estimated 8,000 wine grape producers and a planted area of 130,000 hectares (ha). While the planted area has nearly doubled over the last ten years, exports quadrupled due to high yields and improvements in the industry.
