Italian wine exports to the US plummet in July and August

Italian wine exports to the United States stagnated in July and August (-28% in value), despite anti-tariff "discounts" from Italian producers, who lowered their prices by an average of approximately 17% during the period. This is the summary of the Unione Italiana Vini (UIV) Observatory's findings on exports to the US in the first eight months of 2025, a year in which exports gradually deteriorated in line with the introduction of tariffs, with the value trend going from +12.5% in the first quarter to -3% in the first eight months. This reversal of trend was driven in particular by the slump in July (-26% compared to the same period in 2024) – reported today by Istat – and in August (-30%), the first month subject to 15% tariffs.
