It was the nation's largest vintage on record by a long shot-a 50% increase from its previous record in 2018, when 13.1 million bottles of wine were produced.
Paired with an increase in technological investments like machine harvesters, which helped ramp up production speed, these favorable conditions enabled growers to pick 30,000 tons of grapes, or 9.6 tons to the hectare-nearly double the five tons they picked in 2022.
The biggest contributor to Great Britain's production boom is the substantial increase in vine plantings. They can be traced both to domestic producers and international ones.
