Wine Economics and Policy, 2020

This study analyzes consumer preferences for wine in Prishtina, Kosovo – a transition country in the Balkans, which is making efforts to withstand to the competition pressure from the traditional neighboring wine producing countries. With the changes in life style and consumer behavior, and incomes rising rapidly since the last conflict, it is imperative to survey the changing demand for producers to compete in the domestic markets.

Four distinct classes of consumers were identified. The top two important attributes in the choice of wine are the type and origin but preferences vary across groups – type of wine and origin appear far more important when compared to price, especially for the richest identified segment, whose consumers prefer more expensive wines.

Ženama i potrošačima s više subjektivnog znanja tradicionalni izrazi su važniji od ostalih čimbenika. Važnost zemlje podrijetla, sorte vinove loze i berbe raste sa životnom dobi, dok se važnost cijene i dizajna boce/etikete smanjuje.
