There may not be quick answers to the biggest questions facing the wine industry after Silicon Valley Bank collapsed on Friday — including the future of the bank’s landmark wine industry report.

Already, Silicon Valley Bank UK Limited (which is a legally separate company to SVB in the U.S.) has been sold to HSBC, the largest bank in Europe.
