Data runs through September 2026 in Mexico, the Dominican Republic, Ecuador and Peru, and August in Colombia; in Mexico and Ecuador, every week.

How we measure it

Values are declared invoice values at import, at each shipment's incoterm. Each importer and each winery is grouped by its tax ID or, when there is none, by its normalised name. Changes compare the same months of 2025 and 2026. Whatever comes in through a consolidator without naming the winery is not attributed to any. Details in our methodology.
