Climate Change and Wine Tourism

Climate change has put the survival and viability of wine-growing regions at risk. Whereas the implementation of sustainable approaches was once seen as a source of competitive advantage, it is now critical to the survival of the industry. Wine tourism should therefore aim to minimize possible cultural and environmental damage while improving the economic and social well-being of the wine-growing region.

Sustainable Tourism and SDG 8.9

Contributing to the targets of SDG 8, specifically target 8.9: ‘By 2030, devise and implement policies to promote sustainable tourism that creates jobs and promotes local culture and products,’ this book argues that wine tourism can be considered as a catalyst for the environmental sustainability of wineries. Chapters highlight the economic, socioeconomic, environmental, socio-cultural impact of wine tourism around the world, before concluding with a look to the future trends and challenges.

Best Practices and Future Trends

It features best practices from around the world that wineries and wine tourism companies can incorporate into their core business functions to make their operations more sustainable and also showcases how wineries have designed their tourism offerings to meet sustainable tourism development objectives.
