Record low yields this year are due to bad weather in many of the world's biggest producers.

Poor weather around the world is likely to cause global wine production to drop to a six-decade low this year.

The International Organisation of Vine and Wine (OIV) says that wine production around the world is likely to be about 7% lower in 2023 than last year.

Such a yield would be the worst since 1961.

The OIV attributes the low levels of production to bad weather, including frost, heavy rainfall and drought.
