Young people are drinking less and less alcohol. Multiple crises are creating difficult economic conditions. Drought, heatwaves, floods are posing a challenge for agriculture. The wine world is changing and is looking – now more than ever – for new ways to produce, distribute, sell and communicate about wine.
Rethinking Fine Wine
The recent ProWein Business Report 2024 confirms that premium and super-premium segments are affected by declining sales. This is a global trend.
Areni Global anticipated developments such as these at an early stage. The independent think-tank is dedicated to the future of fine wines and confirms:
"If we don't tackle these threats together, fine wines run the risk of losing their importance."
Areni Global brings together the most important interest groups, from winegrowers, distributors and retailers to restaurateurs, sommeliers and decision-makers at a political and economic level. The international platform sees itself as a place of exchange where ideas can be developed freely and independently.
The focus of Areni Global is on:
Creating and raising awareness
Promoting public discourse
Information and education
Developing alternatives and solutions for increasingly pressing problems
Areni conducts research, analyses and provides insights to advance the fine wine industry worldwide. The global network of employees and members opens up new perspectives and options for action.
The many facets of Fine Wines
Areni Global not only publishes content such as market analyses, research findings and wide-ranging insights into fine wines. Knowledge is also shared in podcasts, with video content, talks and events that take place both online and in-person.
Topics range from regenerative agriculture and soil health, wine and health, wine language, business and trade, as well as regulations, laws and restrictions, digitalisation, communication and marketing, sustainability, different markets and trends through to generational change and diversity. Speaking of diversity: Areni Global also provides food for thought beyond the norm in the context of fine wines. For example, it explores what fine wines and jazz have in common...
