90% of all American wine is grown in California. Napa and Sonoma, the heart of the industry, overwhelmingly voted against Trump in 2024 by like a 2/3 majority.
They will gladly funnel their additional wine money into campaigns against Trump.

Canadian here. I will buy 200% more French wine and (continue with) 0% American wine from this day forth
Just more reason for California and entire West Coast in general to secede.
I’ve already been not buying American wine, but I’ll double my French wine intake for the team.
If France chooses to reward me with recipes to pair with their wines I will happily oblige.
He does not have the power to Tariff! Republicans are traitors to not punish him for this.
I don’t think the average American will care about champagne tariffs.
I’ve never heard of American sparkling wine.
“PROCESSED SPARKLE PRODUCT”
Wine-inspired sparkling juice drink
Fais-le, sale poltron orange
What if France can't afford "peace"?
That tariff is not gonna help at all.
