Over a trillion bottles of wine are produced in Australia every year! When it comes to wine, Australia flies slightly under the radar, however, with a strong drinking culture, it should come as no surprise that Australia is rivalling some of the best wine-producing regions in the world. Australia ranks 6th globally in wine production, behind the traditional wine-producing countries Italy, France, and Spain! An estimated 346,156 metric tons of Shiraz grapes were crushed for wine production in Australia in 2023.
