Why Texas ?
The market
Texas is the second-largest state in the U.S., offering an exceptional opportunity due to its size, resources, and economic and cultural diversity. Since 2011, the U.S. has remained the world's leading wine consumer. In 2022, consumption levels returned to those of 2019. According to the OIV, the U.S. accounts for 15% of global wine consumption and is also a leader in beer and spirits.
Texas is a state where selling wine is much more complex than most people imagine. There aren’t many states like it in the U.S., especially when it comes to how importers must navigate their relationships with sellers."
