ANDALUCIAN wine is making a name for itself across the globe, with a growth 18.5% year-on-year (YOY) across three key exporters: Asia, America, and Europe – an increase of โฌ29 million.
Wine promoters in Andalucia, Extenda, have been working with 26 bodegas from Malaga, Cordoba, Cadiz, Seville, Almeria, Granada and Huelva, to โpromote the knowledge and prestige of the Andalucian wine offer in international marketsโ.
When compared to 2020, the first four-month period of 2021 proved to be very lucrative for the wine regions, especially Cadiz and Cordoba, which grew by 19.5% and 7% respectively.

Importing the most Andalucian Wine was the UK, purchasing โฌ6.9 million, an increase of 7.5% YOY, and in second place was the USA, buying โฌ4.9 million, a growth of 14.2%.
While small, France almost doubled its figures, with a growth of 98%, importing โฌ1.6 million.
In order, the most popular wines include: Jerez, white wine with destination of origin, and Rioja.
The CEO of Extenda, Arturo Bernal, encourages wineries to โmaintain the workโ shown so far in 2021. He added: โWeโve already seen an important recovery in exports in the first four months, exporting almost 20% more than the same period of the previous year, showing the appetite for continued international growth.โ
