Well, as we head towards the end of the year and the holiday season, it's time to take a serious look at the best wines we list – or at least the ones with the highest scores and where better to start than with everyone's favorite white, Chardonnay?
We all know that ranking wine is a tough business – not least because of the subjective element of tasting wine – but there are some wines that are generally agreed to be better than others. Now whether this is simply because we have always been told by wine experts, critics and "educators" – who have often simply digested the same prejudices as the previous generation of experts, and so on ad infinitum – or because the wines are objectively, demonstrably better is a debate for another day.
However, the reality we find ourselves with is that some wines are put on pedestals and worshipped by the masses, while others are not, so we'd best just get used to it and work with what we have. At Wine-Searcher, as well as listing an astonishing array of wine prices, we add together the wine scores we collect and work out an aggregate score.
...
Overall, it seems Chardonnay is in rude health, certainly at the top level. While the supermarket shelves might be flooded with innumerable brands of strictly variable quality (although there are some real gems among them too, in fairness), it's good to see competition at the highest level.
If nothing else, it proves that you don't necessarily need 200 years of history to make great wine.
