Early 2025 Harvest in The Midst of The French Wine Crisis

Early 2025 Harvest in The Midst of The French Wine Crisis

Illustration - Early grape harvest in Aigremont. Gard, France, August 26, 2025. "Obviously, this is bad news..." An understatement: in the midst of the wine crisis, winegrowers saw their hopes of an exemption from customs duties to the United States dashed this Thursday, August 21. French wines will be taxed at 15% – compared to 13.5% since the beginning of the year, and 2.5% previously. Other problems include the decline in consumption, and with global warming, the French grape harvest is starting on average three weeks earlier than in the 1980s, according to INRAE ​​(New window). Rising temperatures – one of the most emblematic markers of climate change – are accelerating vine development, with grape ripening advancing. "There is a phenomenon of amplification of the effect of climate change because the harvest is happening in the middle of summer," confirms Jean-Marc Touzard. A double whammy that's causing temperatures to soar at harvest time. To reduce overproduction, 27,500 hectares of vines will be uproo
