Total wine consumption increased in Texas by 1.25 percent in 2007, according to Natalia Kolyesnikova, at the Texas Wine Marketing Research Institute at Texas Tech University. In the U.S., wine consumption is expected to increase from 292.1 million to 321.5 million cases by 2012.
"If Texas follows this pattern, Texas wine consumption should expect to see similar growth patterns," Kolyesnikova reported.
