Wine Beats Sake in Japan as Working Women Drive Record Drinking

Bottles of Japanese wine sit on display at Chateau Mercian Tokyo Guest Bar in Tokyo, Japan, on Monday, Feb. 6, 2017. Sake, made from fermented rice, is the dominant wine consumed in Japan, though sales volumes havent increased since 2011, according to Euromonitor International. In contrast, consumption of still wines made from grapes has increased an average of 4.5 percent a year in Japan over the past six years, Euromonitor data show.
