Wine & Spirits Magazine Publishes 22nd Annual Restaurant Wine Poll

Subic Clark Wine Shop reports news about wine: Wine & Spirits Magazine Publishes 22nd Annual Restaurant Wine Poll
June 13, 2011
NEW YORK, March 1, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — Wine & Spirits magazine releases the results of its 22nd Annual Restaurant Poll today, reporting on the most popular wines in America’s top restaurants for the fourth quarter of 2010. Sommeliers commented that their high-end clients were spending more generously, specifically on the classics rather than the cult wines. And overall, they report that wine sales are on the rise after a two-year hiatus. 62.6% of respondents said wine sales had increased as a percentage of their restaurant’s total sales; meanwhile, the average price for the Most Popular Wines in Restaurants has hovered at $62 for the last five years.
This year’s exclusive Restaurant Poll report appears in Wine & Spirits’ April issue, which goes on sale at newsstands and bookstores Tuesday, March 15. The Poll ranks the popularity of wines by brand, variety and country of origin, as reported by sommeliers representing Zagat Survey’s most popular restaurants across the US.
“We heard two bits of good news from sommeliers this year,” says Joshua Greene, editor and publisher of Wine & Spirits magazine. “People were more willing to treat themselves to a good bottle of wine at the end of 2010 than they had been in the prior two years. And whether buying low end or high, most diners were looking to get the most out of their wine-buying dollars: They weren’t spending on trophy labels. Sommeliers describe a savvier wine-buying public as we come out of the recession.”
Italy remains the most popular source for imported wines, though it gave up some ground this year to Spain, Argentina and Greece. France held even at 13.3% while Italy dipped slightly from 17.0 to 15.7%. Spain rose to 5.1%, Argentina rose to 4.1% and Greece hit 1.3% — providing enough fodder to create a list of Most Popular Greek Wines for the first time in the history of the Poll.
The Poll report includes “The Restaurant Top 50” — the 50 brands that received the most mentions from participating restaurants.

2010’s Top Ten Most Popular Restaurant Wine List Brands:
1. Sonoma-Cutrer Vineyards
2. Cakebread Cellars
3. Duckhorn Vineyards
4. Jordan Vineyard & Winery
5. La Crema
6. Rombauer Vineyards
7. Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars
8. Caymus Vineyards
9. Merry Edwards
10. Chateau Ste. Michelle
Copies of Wine & Spirits’ April 2011 issue featuring the Poll results are available by mail for $7, including postage and handling.
