In volume terms the country saw 54m litres exported, a 10.6% increase on 2001 and equivalent to 20% of Austria’s total wine production.
Germany remains the largest export market, taking 30m litres. But sales to the US jumped 50% year-on-year in terms of quantity and value, while the value of wine exported to Switzerland increased 20% and the exported quantity went up by 10%, OeWM said.
