Purpose: The primary purpose of this article is to present issues related to the development of the wine market in Poland and its influence on the attractiveness of regions. The specific aim is to identify contemporary trends in the development of the wine market and to analyze their impact on the growth of regional interest. Design/methodology/approach: The author focused on analyzing the available literature and sources of information on the wine market, wine regions, trends, and their influence on the attractiveness of regions. The author based his considerations on Polish and foreign literature, studying scientific articles and electronic sources. To collect scientific literature, the author used the following professional scientific databases: Library of Science and Google Scholar. Findings: In recent years, Poland has become a significant producer of wine, which attracts investment and stimulates the development of local economies. The observed increase in the quality of Polish wines makes wine regions more competitive internationally, which translates into increasing wine production and quality. This dynamic development of the wine market in Poland has a positive impact on the attractiveness of the regions, contributing to increased wine production, the promotion of local culture and heritage, the development of the catering industry, support for sustainable agricultural development, and the development of the tourism sector. Social implications: An increase in wine consumption in Poland has been noted since the 1990s, and Poland is becoming an increasingly promising market with long-term development prospects. Despite this, Poles still consume considerably less wine than the European Union average and even ten times less per capita than citizens of traditional wine regions. This indicates a significant, as yet untapped potential. Polish consumers are becoming increasingly knowledgeable about wine and are showing a growing interest in the beverage. What is more, wine fits in perfectly with current trends. Consumers today approach alcoholic beverages with increasing attentiveness. Tastings, celebrations, and the skillful pairing of wine with meals are increasingly valued, adding a unique flavor to everyday routines. It is observed that declines in the wine category are much smaller compared to other alcoholic beverages. It is worth understanding that these short-term declines are mainly due to the current economic situation and are only a temporary phenomenon. The future of the wine market in Poland, therefore, seems promising (ISBNews, 2023). Originality/value: The author aimed the article at entities/recipients including, but not limited to, entrepreneurs in the wine industry, investors who are considering investing in vineyards, wineries, or related services; people working in the tourism industry, including owners of hotels, restaurants, tourist agencies, etc., who can gain insight into how the developing wine market affects the attractiveness of tourist regions. Those working in local and regional government - can find inspiration in the article on how to use wine development to promote and develop their regions. Consumers and those interested in learning more about winemaking can also find information on trends and opportunities in Polish wine in the article.

North Macedonia, the country located in the middle of the Balkan Peninsula, is known for its wine-growing culture, and is divided into three wine regions with around 80 operating wineries. It is also surrounded by countries where vines have been grown and wine produced since the ancient times. The paper presents the history of North Macedonia as a wine-growing country, and provides an overview of its enotourism offer. An inventory of winery offers based on their official websites and Facebook profiles was performed, including the analysis of the surveys conducted among enotourists. Said surveys targeted participants of the Tikveški Grozdober festival in particular. It should also be mentioned that several of them were completed by Macedonian residents. The survey results outline a socio-demographic profile of the enotourists coming to this country and their enotouristic experience. The article sheds light on the history of winemaking and presents wine regions in North Macedonia.

The purpose of this study is to reveal the current case of wine tourism in Romania, one of the biggest wine suppliers in Europe and other parts of the world and to propose a number of measures that will enhance the experience of tourists during their visit. According to the International Organisation of Wine and Vine, the Romanian wine production in 2015 was 4.069 million hl, thus being the 13th largest wine producer in the world and the 5th on the European market. The study is focused on a region that has a great tradition in wine production, Drăgășani, situated in Vâlcea County, Romania, which sadly lost its charm after the fall of the communist regime. New stakeholders, including important officials from the Romanian government, have invested a lot of money in the area, but things do not go well, and hence there is plenty of room for improvement.

On the other hand, traveling is always associated with a desire to learn about the customs of various ethnic groups where food is an integral part of a trip. Culinary traditions and products play an increasingly important role in the development of tourism. Many tourism products are based on exploring the culinary wealth. It can be said that national and regional cuisine constitute one of the main tourism values. The aim of this work is to present the resources essential for the culinary tourism in Portugal. First of all, the authors focused on the characteristics of Portuguese cuisine. The particular attention has been paid to its uniqueness and specificity which distinguish it from other Mediterranean countries.
