About the report

The Australian Wine Export Report produced by Wine Australia, is a summary report and analysis of total exports of Australian wine. It includes highlights of the latest export volume and value statistics by destination market, container type and variety.

The report is updated quarterly. Reports from previous quarters are also available. See also the Australian wine export monitor.

Export Summary

In the 12 months ended June 2025, Australian wine exports increased by 13 per cent in value to $2.48 billion^[1]. Volume also increased, by 3 per cent to 639 million litres. The average value of exports increased by 10 per cent to $3.88 per litre Free on Board (FOB)^[2].

The year-on-year increase in exports was almost entirely driven by mainland China after tariffs on Australian bottled wine were removed at the end of March 2024. Over 12 months have passed since tariffs in mainland China were removed and the initial surge in exports has eased. The quarter ended June 2025 was 35 per cent smaller in value than the same quarter in the previous year.

Exports to the rest of the world declined by 11 per cent in value to $1.59 billion and 6 per cent in volume to 554 million litres. The decline in value to the world excluding mainland China was driven by Hong Kong, while the volume drop was primarily driven by the United States and United Kingdom. Export volume to the rest of the world declined by 6 per cent to 554 million litres. From a supply perspective, this reflects reduced wine production in Australia over the last three years. On the demand side, this is in line with the long-term trend of declining consumption in key export destinations.

In the 12 months ended June 2025, exports of Australian packaged wine increased by 16 per cent in value to $1.99 billion and 6 per cent in volume to 213 million litres. Average value climbed by 9 per cent to $9.36 per litre FOB as a result. Meanwhile, exports of unpackaged wine (to be packaged at the destination) increased by 4 per cent in value to $490 million and 2 per cent in volume to 426 million litres. Average value increased by 3 per cent to $1.15 per litre FOB.

Europe is the largest region for Australian wine exports by volume and shipments declined by 6 per cent to 288 million litres in the last 12 months. Exports to the United Kingdom were the main contributor to the decline in volume in the region. This is followed by North America, which declined, by 10 per cent to 173 million litres, driven mostly by exports to the United States. While the volume of exports also declined to Canada, value increased due to a higher level of premium (above $7.50 per litre) wine exports to the market in the last 12 months. North East Asia was the growth driver during the 12 months to June 2025, increasing by 80 per cent in volume to 110 million litres. However, mainland China and South Korea were the only destinations in the region that grew in volume in the last 12 months. Exports to South East Asia recovered somewhat, with more positive results in the volume of exports to Thailand, Singapore, and Malaysia.
