top 100 archives
Each year, Wine Spectator editors survey the wines reviewed over the previous 12 months and select our Top 100, based on quality, value, availability and excitement. Since 2009 was a year of economic retrenchment, we focused closely on value to choose our newest list from more than 17,000 wines.
You can also view this list on Wine Spectator Mobile. And don't miss the details and videos on the Top 10 Wines of 2009 in our free-access section, plus a PDF of all Top 100.
Our archives contain every Top 100 list back to the debut year, 1988. You may choose a specific year and sort the list by clicking on its header: rank, wine, score or price.
(* In 1998, some wines share the same rank, as the list was divided into top reds, whites and dessert wines.)
