Wine drinkers are centred mainly in and around the country\u2019s 10 largest metropolitan areas. As wine is considered a sophisticated drink, most Polish people choose to drink it in connection with special occasions and holidays, such as birthdays and Christmas. Around New Year, specifically, is the time which accounts for the majority of sparkling wine and champagne sales and could account for as much as 40% of turnover in this category.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">A recent study has indicated that, as of 2010, 21% of Polish drinkers prefer wine over 17% who choose vodka (CBOS statistics). Though beer is still the number one drink in Poland, the stride that wine has made over \u2018Poland\u2019s national drink\u2019 is a success for the industry. This change in preference could be attributed to the growing wealth of consumers, and the raised awareness of the negative effects of drinking too many spirits.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Red table wine is the segment accounting for the most sales by value and volume, and showed the highest growth dynamic between 2008 and 2009 when value increased by 14%. There was also a recorded increase of sparkling wine and champagne during that time, but it was more so in sales volume than value. Vermouth and dessert wines also hold a significant share of the market and account for 24% of sales value. White wine has not been particularly popular, but is gaining popularity and accounts for 28% of sales. Ros\u00e9 used to be limited in availability in the past, but is currently more readily available and accounts for 5% of the wine market.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Do nast<\/strong><strong>\u0119pnego razu&#8230; <\/strong>(Till next time&#8230;)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Poland, where alcohol (alkohol) sales are usually largely dominated by beer (piwo) and spirits (spirytusy, alkohole), is a relatively new wine market.
