They spend $14.57 compared with Canadians ($10), Americans ($7) Australians ($6.50) and British ($5.92). New Zealand Winegrowers chief executive Philip Gregan said the difference was explained by two factors: in the UK in particular, but also in other markets, a lot of wine was sent in bulk and repackaged.
