Vintage chart
Wine ratings (.../20) by vintage
Weather conditions vary from year to year, so the same estate cannot produce identical wine every year. And that's precisely what makes wine magical! To help understand if a year will be good for wine, an average score is given for each region. This average is based on the quality of the wines produced. This score remains an average, and it would be risky to generalise.
Taking extremes like the catastrophic years 1938, 1951, 1956, 1963, 1968, châteaux like Pétrus, Mouton Rothschild, Latour or Haut Brion will always manage better to come out on top thanks to their expertise, terroir and standards rather than less prestigious estates. However, it will remain impossible to make the greatest wine in a disastrous vintage...
Conversely, exceptional years like 1945, 1961, 1969, 1982 or 1990 will very likely be advantageous for all, but the rating of a vintage cannot be a guarantee in itself. The classification of a grand cru, expert tasting notes, the bottle itself, are all pieces of information to be cross-referenced with a vintage rating.
