Romania: Positive Prospects for U.S. Wine in Romania
Favorable climatic conditions in 2017 led to a 40-percent surge in Romanian grape production. Wine imports are forecast to contract in 2018 following the three years of stable level, while exports are poised to rise. Higher wine production will drive Romanian wineries to enhance marketing efforts in foreign and domestic markets. U.S. wine exports to Romania remain small, but have increased and that trend is likely to continue.
