American Drinkers Favor Affordable Wine and Alternatives

A January 2026 Wine Opinions survey of 1,351 US wine drinkers finds affordability and moderation reshaping purchases, with most respondents buying bottles under $20 and many younger consumers favoring ready-to-drink options. The study reports 25% have used AI tools to recommend wines (52% among ages 21–39) and notes a net 16% decline in consumption versus one to two years earlier.
