**Greek Vermouth Imports Surge Amid Seasonal Demand**
**Greece Sees Increased Demand for Aromatic Wine Flavors**
• Greek imports of vermouth and flavored wines rose 15% in Q2, driven by seasonal demand.
• The majority of these imports (80%) came from Italy, with a smaller portion coming from Spain.
• Average prices for Greek imported vermouth increased by 8% year-over-year due to higher production costs.
Greek importers are capitalizing on the peak summer season’s heightened demand for aromatic wines. As consumers increasingly seek out unique flavors, Greek merchants are stocking up on Italian and Spanish imports to meet this growing need. Meanwhile, higher production costs have driven prices upward, but demand remains strong despite these increased expenses.
