I've not heard about the Ukrainian chocolate war before (have now googled and read about it, oddly enough in Russia Today), but I've read about and seen the Georgian and Moldovan wine ban in action. Pretty brutal for such small countries to be honest. Luckily the best Georgian + Moldovan wine will get exported to the EU anyway, but for your average winery times must get tough.

I'm not so sure EU wants to import wine anyway. They have their own of the best quality in any quantities

The EU imports massive amounts of wine from all over, so yes, Russia might just turn out to hurt their own interests with that ban, as it's quite possible Georgia and Moldova will simply find other markets and get less dependent on Russian trade.
