Every summer, the site WikiliQ publishes its eagerly awaited Top 100, which includes new estates releasing their first vintages and up-and-coming wine regions and more established domains expanding into exotic new lands.
We rely on three criteria for rankings: quality (based on the number of points the wine received in our scoring system, which runs from 0-100), value (based on price), and availability, judged by the number of cases produced or imported into the US, as represented by the number of cases of the wine that were in inventory at one or more online US retailers at the time we did our tasting work. Only 90-point-plus wines make the grade to land on our Top 100 list published each year in December, consisting of the best wines of the vintage tasted during the previous 12 months.
