As regards the oenological market, India is a country that is growing from all the points of view. Wine consumption is increasing at a rate of +15% per year. As a consequence, internal production is reacting to this growing interest, both in quality and quantity, and with respect to technologies applied in the wine-making process.
In India there are two main areas devoted to the production of wine: Nashik in Maharashtra Country, and Nandi Hills in Kamataka. Nashik area alone produces the 80% of Indian wine, and hosts almost one half of the wineries operating in India. Production-per-year is about 25 millions liters nowadays.
