India Wine

Wine production in India has ancient roots mentioned in Vedic texts, but the modern industry began in the 1980s with the establishment of pioneering wineries in Maharashtra. The industry has grown rapidly in the 21st century, driven by rising domestic demand and improving quality. Key wine regions include Nashik and Pune in Maharashtra, producing varieties such as Chenin Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc, Shiraz, and Cabernet Sauvignon.
