Export of Moldovan wines to Russian decreased by about 60%

From the beginning of 2022, the export of Moldovan wine to Russia has decreased by almost 60 percent, compared to the previous year. According to the National Office of Vine and Wine, the cause of this phenomenon is the reorientation of Moldovan producers towards the European and US markets, informs Agro TV.

During the last years, the export of Moldovan wines to Russia continued to decrease. From January 2022 until now, Moldovan winemakers have exported products worth 3.4 million dollars to Russia.
