A glass bottle shortage has winemakers worried and could make the bottle you buy in the future cost more.
Ranji Sinha, KIRO 7 NewsA glass bottle shortage has winemakers worried and could make the bottles you buy in the future cost more.
Keyser said Rocky Pond harvested grapes in October, which was already a bit of an oddity for the season. But the winemaker placed their glass order in July to ensure that they could bottle, which they will start to do in about a week.Supply chain issues and energy costs are creating a situation that’s led to a dwindling glass bottle supply. Keyser said that factory closures in China and delays at U.S. ports are factors.
While bottles are the primary way that consumers purchase and cellar wine, Keyser said she’s heard of wine producers that are already looking for alternatives.
