It’s no surprise that winemakers are taking climate threats seriously. In California, for instance, the wine industry in Napa County alone is worth $9.5 billion and employs more people than any other industry. Wine tourism makes up 80% of Napa’s tourism. So, the valley has far more to lose than just its reputation as a primer wine producer.
To combat losses, scientists advise wine producers to start adapting as soon as possible. The Stanford climate study provides recommendations for viticulture techniques that increase plants’ tolerance for severe heat.
Such recommendations may provide little solace, though, in Old World regions, like Bordeaux or Burgundy, where generations of winemakers have worked hard to perfect their world-famous varietals over the centuries. Wine lovers would do well to visit these areas before the vines begin to change. Because in a matter of decades, the world’s wine geography may look a lot different than it does today.
