Australia represents about one-quarter of China’s wine imports, with brands like Treasury Wine Estates’ Penfolds and Pernod Ricard’s Jacob’s Creek. “Jacob’s Creek is growing by more than 23% annually. Italy, Spain and Chile also have sizeable market share and are capitalizing on China’s broadening consumer interest in wine.
