According to the CIVC's initial estimates, the global Champagne wine market grew +0.5% in 2017, with 307.7 million bottles shipped, but with contrasting trends depending on the destination: -2.4% for France, -1.1% for Europe and +8.8% for the rest of the world. Sales for the Group's Houses were down slightly in France, the UK (combined with a negative exchange effect of 6.5%) and Europe. The progress made on many other exports destinations didn't fully offset the contraction in traditional markets.

Consolidated revenues for the fourth quarter, representing 48% of the full-year figure for 2017, benefited from a more dynamic end to the year than in 2016.

2017 earnings will be released after close of trading on Thursday March 29, 2018.
