Australia occupies the fifth place on our list of 10 countries that export the most wine. Last year Australia recorded the highest increase in wine export. The value of shipments rose by 7.8 percent, while exported quantities climbed 4.9 percent compared to the previous year. Australian wine was sold in 123 countries, among which 78 imported more beverage in 2015 than a year ago. In addition, five markets valued more than 100 million Australian dollars. The leading importers of wine from Australia are the US, UK, China, Canada, and Hong Cong while favorite labels on the international market are Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon. Although first two top importers of the beverage (the US, and the UK) bought less wine in 2015 than in 2014, there was not a drop in the export mainly because of great gains in China’s market.
