Abstract
The quantity and style of wine consumed in Australia has changed dramatically since the 960s.
Besides the increase in consumption from 9 to 19.9 litres per head in the past 10 years, the major changes have been the greater importance of table wine, particularily white table wine, and the more exacting standards set by consumers and wine producers.
Also more importance has been placed on distinctive regional and varietal wines and the role of premium varieties.
