The Vatican

According to reports, the Vatican consumes more wine per capita than any other country on the planet. The typical Vatican citizen consumes 74 litres of wine per year, which is more than double the consumption of the wine-producing countries of France and Italy. There are several causes for their increased wine drinking. Vatican inhabitants prefer to eat in bigger groups, and the city's lone grocery offers wine duty free, resulting in increased consumption.
