Chile, Spain and South Africa seem to be the party spoilers for the USA
and Australia who have virtual brand monotony.
France may not enjoy the brand popularity in the still wine section but
has a near monopoly in the sparkling wine sector with only Freixenet (49)
and Martini (100) give some competition to Champagne brands.
Moet Chandon is the obvious king (14). Other brands enjoying a spot
in the Top 100 Spirits and Wine Brands are Veuve Clicquot (26) also owned
by LVMH. Other brands at the fag end of the ceremonial parade are Laurent
Perrier (73), Piper Heidsieck (74), Mumm (76), Dom Perignon (79), Taittinger
(91) and Nicolas Feuillatte (99).
