厄尔尼诺现象导致全球葡萄酒产量下降

 

    国际葡萄与葡萄酒组织（International Organisation of Vine and Wine）估计今年的葡萄酒产量为259亿升，同比下降5%，是近20年来的最低值。

 

    国际葡萄与葡萄酒组织认为气候异常严重影响产量。国际葡萄与葡萄酒组织首席执行官奥朗德（Jean-Marie Aurand）表示，厄尔尼诺现象现象似乎再次冲击拉丁美洲，伴随着大量降雨，产量受到异常气候影响。

    Global wine production is expected to fall by 5% in 2016 because of “climatic events” causing steep drops in production in most of the southern hemisphere, particularly Chile and Argentina .

 

    The International Organisation of Vine and Wine  （OIV） has estimated that output will reach 259.5m hectolitres （mhl） this year, making 2016 one of the lowest production years in the past two decades.

 

    While the amount of wine produced should meet consumer demand, the figures are a reminder of how global warming and natural climate variability are having aprofound effect on wine, and perhaps wher it will be grown in future.
