Vatican is the biggest consumer of wine: 100 bottles per capita
O Vatican is State who consumes the most wine No. world: 30% a more than the France, which is the second largest consumer, and the Italy, which occupies the third position.
To those who rush to link this data to the incidence of the so-called mass wine, the one used during the celebration of Catholic Communion, California Wine Institute, which lists wine consumption in the world every two years, country by country, adds that this type of wine was not counted.
No Vatican, they are drinking 73,8 liters of wine per peopleNear 100 bottles, a 1 every three days. In second place and far behind is France with 50,7 liters per capita. Third place is Italy – the largest wine producer in the world – with 48,2 liters each, according to the newspaper Il Tempo.
For comparison purposes, in Brazil the average consumption is 2,2 liters per year, per person.
Data California Wine Institute, taken from an article published in The Daily Beast, show that the Vatican, despite having a population of just 842 peoples, has an average consumption much higher than the rest of the world. Seven times more than “wine per capita” from the United States.
It is no coincidence, therefore, that the Daily Beast published the news “The Vatican priests and nuns are drowning in wine.”
