Call for paper : Sustainable Wine Industry and Wine Economics
Guest editor : Jean-Marie Cardebat
In a context of crisis in the wine market, organic, natural and biodynamic wines continue to sell more and gain market share. Is the future of the wine sector intimately linked to its sustainability? This is the question that this Special Issue aims to answer.
What are the major journals for wine economists? Which ones are the most influential?
A communication by Jean-François Outreville, Lara Agnoli and Eric Le Fur
A survey for a peer evaluation of journals by wine economists was launched on June 19 this year. The information and link to the survey was sent to 440 valid email addresses of academic researchers who participated at recent annual meetings of the American Association of Wine Economics (AAWE), the European Association of Wine Economists (EuAWE) and the Academy of Wine Business Research (AWBR). Respondents were also asked to indicate those journals they currently have an association as a reviewer or previous author.
The objective of this survey is to present different approaches to list the best journals that researchers in the field of wine economics care about or value the most for their publications. This is an attempt to offer more than yet another journal ranking. This exercise is of potential merit for the field of wine economics and those active within it, especially young scholars who are facing a competitive environment.

A spring without en primeur - the foreboding of a market without buyers?
A communication by Jean-Marie Cardebat, Philippe Masset & Jean-Philippe Weisskopf
Press Release - Working Paper / Fine Wines - April 2020
Covid-19 and fine wines: the ‘perfect blend’ for a severe headache?
Jean-Marie Cardebat, Philippe Masset & Jean-Philippe Weisskopf
European Association of Wine Economists
Working paper – April 2020
Covid-19 has only been officially declared a pandemic since March 11, but its effects on the economy are already dramatic. For some industries, such as the travel & leisure industry, the current crisis is likely to become the most severe since the Great Depression. In this article, we investigate the impact of Covid-19 on the fine wine market (the upper segment of the wine market). The market for fine wine is dominated by France, with Bordeaux and Burgundy accounting for close to 50% and 20% respectively of the trading activity in 2019 (Liv-ex.com, 2019). Other major players include Italy, Spain, Germany, the U.S. (for production and consumption) and China (mostly for consumption). Buyers typically include fine-dining venues – whose revenues are currently down to zero; as well as consumers, collectors and investors – whose purchasing power suffers from the economic and financial turmoil. Given the context, it appears obvious that the fine wine market will experience negative effects due to the pandemic.
But two questions remain open: how severe will these effects be? And how long will the market take to recovers?
There are two ways to answer these questions. One is based on an economic analysis of the fundamental determinants of fine wine prices. The other is based on a comparative analysis of the economic crises that have impacted the fine wine market in the past. A synthesis of these analyses is proposed before looking at a prospective conclusion on the long-term effects of this crisis.
