    2026-02-02 15:00 2026-02-02 16:00 Europe/Madrid Export: Alternatives to the US market Spanish wineries are experiencing constant bouts of uncertainty caused by the ups and downs of the North American market. Objectively, no other country can single-handedly replace sales in the United States, but there are markets to explore elsewhere in the world. What are these emerging markets where there is still a long way to go? Can Spanish wine turn to other destinations to offset a potential decline in sales in the US? Is it necessary to change production or approaches to maintain the percentage of Spanish wine exports?  Auditorium
