Vintages: Wine Vintage Guide
Dmytro Shaniuk
Was it a good year for wine? Vintages answers in a second. Vintages combines independent vintage charts into one clear rating for every region and every year: a 100-point index, stars, a note on how much the charts agree and, where known, when to drink. VINTAGE RATINGS • 50 top wine regions, including Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne, Piedmont, Tuscany, Rioja, Napa and Barossa • Harvests from the 1970s to today, for red, white, sweet, sparkling and fortified wines • A decade grid shows a region's history at a glance • Pick a year to see where the harvest was best VINTAGE MAPS • Vintage maps of wine regions, from Bordeaux and Burgundy to the Mosel, Napa and Barossa • Every appellation colored by the quality of the chosen year • Print any map in A4 or save it as a PDF WEATHER FOR EVERY SEASON • Growing seasons rated from 1 to 5 using daily weather since 1991, for 113 regions in 17 countries • See what helped or hurt: spring frost, heat, rain before harvest, disease pressure, cool nights • Kept separate from wine quality: it shows how kind the weather was to the vines 146,000 WINES • Search producers, vineyards and appellations • Official classifications: Bordeaux 1855, Saint-Émilion, Graves, Burgundy Grand and Premier Crus, Champagne, Alsace and more • Plain-language guides explain every rank, so you know what Grand Cru really means • For each wine, see how every year turned out in its region MADE FOR WINE LOVERS • Save your favorite regions • Works offline: all the data is on your phone • No account, no ads A vintage rating describes a region's year, not a single bottle: good producers make good wine in difficult years.
