Fortified wine

Article Abstract:

Overall volume sales of fortified wine continue to fall, but at a slower rate, with a modest rise expected in 1998. Port sales have fared better than the remainder of the market, but only account for 15% of total fortified wine sales. The market is dominated by major multinationals, although smaller specialist companies are a major force. Advertising expenditure has fallen, representing only 0.5% of the 1997 total market value.
