WineAmerica, the national association of American wineries, has released its much-anticipated 2025 Economic Impact Study, offering a detailed look at the substantial role wine plays in the U.S. economy.

Prepared by John Dunham & Associates, the study shows the U.S. wine industry:

- Supports 1.75 million jobs
- Generates over $53 billion in tax revenue
This growth reflects expanding consumer interest, robust wine tourism, and ongoing innovation from vineyard to bottle.
