Wine & Spirits 27th Annual Hall of Fame

At W&S, our critics turn the process around and recommend wines first, then rate them. The rating is just an index of how strongly we want you to know about the wine. That might seem like a subtle distinction, but it’s a completely different way of approaching the process. It means that we focus our anenlion on a small fraction of the wines we taste, describing them as clearly as possible and providing specific reasons for each recommendation.
