With the end of the year comes year-end best-of lists…if there is a topic on which people have strong opinions, you can be sure that every magazine or journal on that topic is busy compiling their lists and defending their opinions. Wine, as you can guess, is no exception. Here are links to the lists painstakingly crafted by some of the industry’s top tastemakers:
• The Wine Enthusiast 100
• The Wine Spectator 100
• Food & Wine’s Best Wines of 2010
• Wine columnist Elin McCoy’s list for Bloomberg Business & Finance
None of them agree on which of wine of 2010 was the best—so if you have the time and resources, you might want to try them all yourself and come up with your own final decision. (Or, you may decide that none of the big magazines got the #1 selection right at all!)
What was your top wine for the past year?
