any Italian speakers out there - forecast of Prosecco sales Mexico http://www.unindustria.treviso.it/confindustria/treviso/istituzionale.nsf/frame/828A662D24B49DA8C1257DE4004EBCA4/$File/presentazione Cirve.pdf?OpenElement

You will have to cut and paste the link to view the pdf

between 2014 and 2014 export sales of Prosecco rose from 0.2 to 0.8 million bottles i.e. 400% - so I don't know whether you can extrapolate that to 2015

Looking at the China line against the Mexico line on that chart, it looks like China's consumption growth is way ahead of Mexico.

Tried that but I can make out litres consumed not percentage of consumption for 2015, again my eyesight not so great. :0

The answer to question 4 according to the PDF is 237.3%, perhaps a Telegraph typo??

I think its real tough question I found an article on the Telegraph (hosts of the comp) that states 72% increase for the UK based on the IRL figures last spring. So no idea where their source is as nothing comes up if you google the UK one at their '66%'

if no-one comes up with a def answer a couple of
mins before midnight i'm going to go for the 137

Don't forget that the phrasing is "grown" or "risen"! Hence if it is now 237%, this means it is an 137% INCREASE versus previously (i.e. the old number is taken as 100%). Well at least that's how I would read it.
The same is true if you look at the UK numbers. Going from 62.2 mio litres to 101.1 mio litres is 163% or a 63% INCREASE (doesn't quite match the Telegraph data but close enough). And you don't need to squint at the graphs, the numbers are in the left hand side of the table.

And very well done for finding the pdf!

Edited to say, I am aware that I am comparing the 2015 to the 2013 numbers, but the Telegraph doesn't specify 2015 vs 2014, just "figures released" and the UK numbers (roughly) match the Telegraph's quote for the same time frame.
