We drink less and less wine

Since 2010, per capita wine consumption in Hungary has been declining almost continuously, so much so that now only one person drinks almost 5 liters of wine or must a year – agrarszektor.hu wrote. One of the reasons for the decrease is probably that, with the exception of one or two outstanding years since 1993, that wine production in Hungary has stagnated and decreased spectacularly.

While the annual per capita consumption of wine and must in Hungary was 5.7 liters in 2010, by 2018 this figure had dropped to 5.1 liters. Although it is clear that there have been two relatively outstanding years in wine consumption in the last eight years, with annual consumption per capita of 6 liters in 2011 and 5.8 liters in 2016, the trend shows that Hungarians drink less wine.
