Our Top-Rated Wines for 2024
What makes a top wine? The Wine Enthusiast Tasting Panel blind tastes and rates more than 25,000 wines annually using a 100-point scale. We provide reputable reviews for readers across the globe and assign helpful designations that direct consumers to their ideal bottles. Our reviews are the backbone of our annual lists, including The Enthusiast 100, Best Buys and Cellar Selections, as well as bottle round-ups that break down the best bottles of the moment by varietal, region and more.
All lists are editorially driven and selected. There is no nomination or submission process, nor a fee associated with inclusion in any list. Many factors are considered, including price, distribution of region, wine types and varieties and availability.
Note: Starting in September 2024, there is a processing fee of $65 per SKU to submit a wine or spirit for review. This processing fee goes directly toward supporting the new Wine Enthusiast Ratings Platform, producing the buying guides for producers and readers and upholding the blind-tasting standards that consumers have come to expect from Wine Enthusiast.
