“…Today, Algeria produces hardly any wine at all, and this had much to do with its relationship with the EC/ EU. In a nutshell, therefore, 'Algexit' also led to 'Alcexit', at least in the longer term (Meloni & Swinnen 2014).From this low point in the 1970s, EU-Algeria relations slowly improved over the past four decades. Building on several smaller agreements, the two partners concluded an association agreement in 2002 and later added further steps.…”

“…From the peak in 1880, average wine prices fell by more than 60% over the course of the next 25 years (Meloni and Swinnen, 2014). The most dramatic decline was during the 1890s, when French production began to increase.…”

“…All this started with the collapse of vineyards in France which triggered massive vineyard investments in Algeria in the 1880s. In the 50-year period between 1880 and 1930, Algerian wine production and exports grew dramatically, turning the industry from nonexistent into the world's largest exporter of wine (Meloni and Swinnen, 2014).…”

Terms of use: Documents in AbstractThe 1860-1970 period is a particularly interesting period to study wine trade because of dramatic changes in the wine markets and trade over the course of a century. The dramatic changes in trade flows were caused by both "nature" and "men". Mediterranean wine trade represented around 90% of global wine trade and France was the world's leading exporter. The arrival of Phylloxera devastated French vineyards and stimulated Spanish and Italian wine exports. When French wine production recovered, French winegrowers pressured their government to intervene, resulting in high tariffs on Spanish and Italian wines and Greek raisins. The protectionist trade regime contributed to the bankruptcy of Greece and to the substitution of wine trade from Spain and Italy to France's North African colonies. When Algeria, Morocco and Tunisia became independent, France imposed high wine tariffs, effectively killing their wine exports. The decline of the wine industry in North Africa coincided with the trade and policy integration of the South European wine exporters in the EEC-the predecessor of the EU.
