Wines rated by Vinous

Wines rated by Vinous – Excellence according to Galloni & Martin

Welcome to our Vinous-rated wines collection, a carefully curated selection of wines that have received high marks from the tasters at the renowned American publication Vinous . Founded by Antonio Galloni (former critic for Robert Parker) and enriched by contributions from Neal Martin , Vinous is now one of the world's most influential wine publications, particularly for lovers of fine European wines.

Vinous: a modern and rigorous approach

Since its inception, Vinous has distinguished itself through its meticulously researched analytical style, rigorous rating system, and approach to wine that is both technical and emotional. The publication releases thousands of reviews each year, often following in-depth tastings at wineries, in cellars, or in blind tastings. The scores out of 100 reflect the wine's quality, aging potential, expressiveness, and overall balance.

The wines in this collection have received scores above 90/100 – a guarantee of remarkable quality – and even higher for some iconic vintages.

An international selection with a French accent

Although Vinous covers wines from all over the world (Italy, Spain, the United States, etc.), this collection focuses on French wines rated by Vinous :

• Red wines from Bordeaux, Burgundy, Rhône, Languedoc, Southwest France
• Elegant white wines from the Loire, Alsace or Burgundy
• Champagnes selected for their finesse, tension and complexity

You will find classified grand cru wines, but also wines from independent winemakers, often praised for their authenticity, precision and remarkable value for money.

Antonio Galloni & Neal Martin: two perspectives, one requirement

Antonio Galloni , founder of Vinous, is renowned for his appreciation of elegance and structure, and for his expertise in great European wines. Neal Martin , formerly of The Wine Advocate, brings a touch of humor, historical perspective, and a deep understanding of terroirs, particularly in Burgundy and Bordeaux.

Their ratings are sought after by collectors and enthusiasts worldwide. Choosing a wine highly rated by one of these critics guarantees a wine that is profound, balanced, and true to its origin.

Food and wine pairings & storage advice

The wines rated by Vinous, whether red, white or sparkling, are distinguished by their ability to enhance meals:

• Reds : red meats, game, stews, aged cheeses
• Whites : fish, seafood, poultry, exotic dishes
• Champagnes : gourmet aperitifs, sushi, seafood dishes, light desserts

Many of these wines can be enjoyed now, but some prestigious vintages or appellations will gain in complexity after a few years in the cellar.

Why choose a wine rated by Vinous?

This collection is for those looking for:

• Wines recognized by renowned international critics
• A diversity of origins and styles, from classic to exclusive
• Wines that have demonstrated a high level of quality in blind tastings
