any idea why Italy went down to 44.500, lower then the last 3 years?
In a word, weather. In 2021, there was a lot of damage to the budding vines from frost in April and May, primarily in the north but even as far south as Puglia. In addition, severe hailstorms in July reduced the yield in many areas in the Northeast. It remains to be seen where 2022 will end up, given the year’s extreme heat and drought conditions as well as, ironically, more hail damage in some regions.
