Wine could be gone by 2040 due to climate change Okay, don’t freak out, not all of it. We’re talking about white wine, which uses asyrtiko grapes in its production. It is in danger of disappearing in wineries in Southern Europe because of the intense heat. For example, on the island of Santorini, last year the production at Paraskevopoulos’s Gaia Wines was about a third of the 2022 production, and this year’s harvest will drop to one-sixth of the 2022 level. This is why experts fear that by 2040 the asyrtiko grape could disappear altogether, and with it the white wine variety. Are you going to cry? Source: Global News (EU, USA)
