According to new research just released by Wine Business Solutions, listings of South African wine on UK wine lists are up 4% year on year and the average price of a bottle of South African wine is now 9% more than it was a year ago.
Price rises for all wines were only up 1% vs a year ago following a period of significant price inflation post COVID.
“Best of all, according to WBS Principal, Peter McAtamney, SA prices are now £7.50 per bottle clear of the average Chilean wine sold by the bottle in UK restaurants and other On-Premise outlets, meaning a sizeable gap between South Africa and the bottom of the market.
This is because of the shift away from listing wines designated ‘Western Cape’ and more premium South African wines being listed under regional designations such as ‘Stellenbosch’ and ‘Swartland’.”
