MOTIVATION Literature on wine clusters Wine clusters are well-studied, aspatially a la Porter s clusters, Marshall s localized industries, industrial complexes, agglomerations Geographic location is largely ignored beyond relative location Economic approaches: focus on transportation cost (relative distance), quality/price premiums (terroir), knowledge spillovers Horticultural approaches: focus on viticulture and physical geographic characteristics (soil, rainfall) and climate change Background data analysis: Grapes grown in every state except Alaska Production of grapes and wine has expanded between 2002 and 2012 Nationally: Acres bearing grapes 8%, grape producing operations 18%, and wineries 180% Regionally: # counties with grape production 14 %, but only 35% of counties growing grapes in 2002 also grew in 2012
RESEARCH GOALS Purpose: Determine whether geographic location patterns of grape and wine production occur in the US beyond the premier growing regions Determine whether the grape and wine production industries are colocated Compare grape and wine production and colocation to that of hops and beer

HOPS AND BREWERIES, 2002 AND 2012
CONCLUSIONS There has been spatial proliferation of both grapes and wine production over time, and the most visually apparent clusters of wineries are along the Pacific, in the Finger Lakes, and along the Appalachians Grape and wine production are slightly spatially concentrated, slightly to moderately spatially clustered, and moderately to highly colocated Little change in statistics over time indicates that the data is likely dominated by California, which is corroborated by the LISA and Local L maps Non-AVA results show slight colocation between grape and wine production and no spatial concentration, but spatial clustering for wineries increased to a magnitude larger than in AVAs Hops production is more concentrated than grape production, breweries have become more clustered over time and now are on par with wineries, and there is little colocation between hops and beer production
