Where Does Maryland Rank in States Interested in Wine?
Few beverages unite Americans of all kinds of backgrounds quite like a good glass of wine, regardless of what style of grape is used or whether it’s red, white or even rosé.
According to Statista.com, the U.S. consumes the largest volume of wine of any country, at 34 million hectoliters in 2022. To toast to National Drinking Wine Day on Feb. 18, Americans are searching for which wines to uncork in celebration.
So, which states led the way in a keen love of wine? BetMaryland.com veered for a moment off Maryland sports betting and dug into Google Trends to discover the top 10 states most frequently searching “wine” between Jan. 31 and Feb. 6, 2024.
Based on these results, Maryland was found to come in tied for No. 4 out of states most interested in “wine,” compared to other topics.

Love of Wine Obvious in Maryland
The state of Maryland’s interest in wines punches well above its weight class, with a search interest score of 75. That places Maryland in a tie with Colorado and New Jersey for fourth nationally, ahead of California (74), South Carolina and Massachusetts (73 each).
Nationally, the leaders in terms of wine search interest scores were Pennsylvania (89), Florida (81) and Connecticut (78), illustrating how deep of a love for the grape-based beverage runs on the East Coast.
Rounding out the top 10 nationally was Oregon, which finished with a search interest score of 72, proving that the love of good wine stretches well beyond the traditional hot spot of Napa Valley in California.
