List of wine-producing regions
Wines are produced in significant growing regions where vineyards are planted. Wine grapes berries mostly grow between the 30th and the 50th degrees of latitude, in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres, typically in regions of Mediterranean climate. Grapes will sometimes grow beyond this range, thus minor amounts of wine are made in some rather unexpected places.
In 2021, the five largest producers of wine in the world were, in order, Italy, France, Spain, the United States, and China.
Countries
2021 data from the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) show a total worldwide production of 27 million tonnes of wine with the top 15 producing countries accounting for over 90% of the total.<ref name="faostat">Template:Cite web</ref>

Ukraine
In Ukraine, at the present time there are seven administrative regions (provinces) in which the wine industry has developed. Given the favorable climatic location, the law of Ukraine allocated 15 winegrowing areas (macrozones), which are the basis for growing certain varieties of grapes, and 58 natural wine regions (microzones). These are located mainly in the following areas.
- Autonomous Republic of Crimea and Sevastopol – 6 macrozones with 12 microzones (69 wine grapes)
- Kherson Oblast – 2 macrozones with 10 microzones (28 wine grapes)
- Mykolaiv Oblast – 2 macrozones with 7 microzones (31 wine grapes)
- Odesa Oblast – 3 macrozones with 16 microzones (42 wine grapes)
- Zakarpattia Oblast – 1 macrozone with 12 microzones (24 wine grapes)
- Zaporizhzhia Oblast – 1 macrozone with 1 microzone (5 wine grapes)
United Kingdom
Template:Main In the UK, the area under vines is small, and whilst viticulture is not a major part of the rural economy, significant planting of new vines has occurred in the early 21st century. The greatest concentration of vineyards is found in the south east of England, in the counties of Hampshire, Kent, Surrey, and Sussex.
