Prosecco shortage: What’s behind the wine shortage in Italy?

A Prosecco shortage is expected as a result of high demand and exceeding rainy conditions in Italy. Robert Cremonese is the export manager for Prosecutor manufacturer Bisol, and talks about the wine failing to meet demand in 2015, USA Today reports. “Last year’s harvest was very poor, and down by up to 50% in some parts, so there is a very real possibility of a global shortage,” Cremonese said in an interview with The Drinks Business.
