For the first time in 19 years, U.S. wine consumption per capita is outpacing France and Italy. Currently, Americans account for 13% of total global wine consumption. The largest growing demographic of wine drinkers are Millienials, and their top reasons for wine purchase are varieties of wine by the glass and the ability to pair it with food. Core wine drinkers want and expect choice. Fleming’s continues to buck its competition, offering its guests 100 wines by the glass.
