The world is very worried about how the Russia - Crimea war will evolve, and in the meantime, it is continuing. Naturally, everyone is hoping they can toast the end of the conflict soon. As the war rages, instead, Italian wine and the world continue working in 2022 to maintain the great recovery in 2021. 

And, it looks like things are going rather well, at least as far as the value of bulk wines in the topmost Italian territories. Prices, for the most part, are stable, and, in some cases, have increased, and they have almost never decreased. In general, this is a symptom of health, although it could become a problem, linked to rising production costs that are affecting all sectors. In the wine sector, according to the latest estimates from Unione Italiana Vini (UIV), rising costs were at + 12%.
