In addition, determining the demographic and economic profile of consumers consuming regional Lubusz wines, as well as proposing practical solutions for building a competitive advantage by the wine industry and wine sellers based on factors shaping the purchase of regional Lubusz wines. In the research procedure, the authors used literature analysis and survey research conducted among young consumers from the Lubusz Voivodeship. The research shows that the purchase of wine is associated with young consumers’ perception of it as supporting the Lubusz region in its development. However, the purchase determinants include taste, quality, bouquet, and positive information about the wine. In turn, the main reasons for not making purchases are not drinking alcohol and too high a price.
