The present research addresses the push–pull winescape traits of the hedonic wine tourism segment and discusses their attitudinal and behavioral intentions. The self-governing pen-and-paper survey conveniently sampled 301 wine tourists in situ at the Swan Valley winery in Western Australia. Push–pull winescape qualities generated a segmentation basis for cluster analysis, which defined four divisions— Inspireds, Self-Drivens, Market-Drivens, and Inerts. Inspireds exhibited the most favorable attitude toward the winery and were the most willing to recommend the winery, whereas Inerts demonstrated the converse effect. Theoretically, the segmentation bases, building on the Push–Pull winescape properties, provide a fresh and more nuanced description of the wine tourism categories in Australia’s rising wine tourism sector. Idealistically, this new image is important in delivering marketing insights to fewer Australian wine producers whose only connection to regional retail and export markets is via direct sales at the winery gates.

Wine tourism, a tourism sector characterized by trips made with the motivation of visiting and getting to know wineries and wine regions, is considered as a marketing tool and a way to promote local development and has assumed greater importance for wine regions in recent years. The European Wine City (CEV), is an international wine tourism initiative, promoted by the Network of European Wine Cities (RECEVIN), which has already contemplated several wine regions, namely, Reguengos de Monsaraz, in 2015. This initiative caused several impacts, for wine producers, for the community and for the territory, that will be analysed in this article.

This study extends previous empirical efficiency research by focusing on a tourism sector which has limited evidence to date: the holiday and other short-stay accommodation industry (tourist apartments and hostels). The sample comprises 12,864 firm-level observations during the period 2005–2016. First, we calculate the efficiency index using a non-radial Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). Second, we test the association between efficiency index and contextual factors using both Tobit and bootstrapped regression. Another major contribution is the use of a radial DEA model to confirm the results of the study. The current study offers new insights by focusing on an industry with scarce evidence, using radial and non-radial DEA approaches, and examining a wide variety of efficiency drivers. The efficiency results are examined by year, region and tourist destination type (including tourism dimensions such as rural, cultural and wine tourism). This is an important novelty of the study. The main findings reveal that the most efficient tourism destinations correspond to mixed or diversified destinations: those that combine some dimensions such as cultural, rural and wine tourism. The regressions models show that environmental, macroeconomic and business variables are drivers of tourism competitiveness. Taken together, the study goes a step further in the efficiency field.

This article aims to identify the influence of wine sector toward wine tourism in Romania. The article describes both wine sector and wine tourism. The study attempts to demonstrate the correlation between these two sectors pointing out that wine tourism in Romania is still in a developing phase. Therefore, understanding the link between these two merging industries and how they influence each other stands as the goal of the paper. Overall, the results suggest that there is a significant wine-growing potential with a conclusive outcome in wine tourism sector.
