Consumer expenditures for all wines on-premise and off-premise, 12 months through April 2018. Excludes cider. Key Indicators Complete data is available at winesandvines.com/metrics. U .S. wine sales were unchanged from a year earlier at $2.9 billion in April, mar- ket research firm bw166 reported. Do- mestic table wine sales were $8 million lower than a year earlier offsetting greater sales of sparkling wine (up $3 million) and imported bulk wine (up $5 million). A similar dynamic played out in the latest 12 months. While sales of domestic table increased by $70 million and sparkling wines gained $59 million in sales, bulk imports rose by $440 million, leading domestic wine sales 1% higher to $42 billion. Yet the real story of the past 12 months was packaged imports, which drove growth in total wine sales across the United States. While im- ported sparkling wine increased 10%, a gain of $368 million, imported table wines in- creased by 6%, or $866 million. All told, the category saw an additional $1.2 billion in sales in the period, up 6% from a year ago. This was more than double the $570 million in addi- tional sales logged by domestic wines (includ- ing bulk imports). Italian sparkling and French rosé remain the key drivers of the growth. The activity drove total wine sales in the U.S. 3% higher in the latest 12 months to $63 billion. —Peter Mitham U.S. Wine Sales Winery Job Index MONTH April 2018 482 April 2017 414 12 MONTHS April 2018 333 April 2017 303 MONTHLY INDEX 10% U.S. Wine Sales Unchanged in April Winejobs.com Index 500 400 300 200 100 0 2018 2017 May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec Jan Feb Mar Apr Source: winejobs.com 16%
