Popping open a bottle of wine shouldn’t be a shot in the dark. That’s why Wine Enthusiast is here with our official 2022 vintage chart, to help you decide which bottles to save for later and which to enjoy right now.
Our wine vintage chart lets you easily check ratings over the past 25 years from every region around the globe. But remember, while our expert reviewers base these ratings and maturity estimates on their vast tasting experience and interviews with local winemakers, we can’t guarantee every bottle will live up or down to generalizations—in the world of wine, there are exceptions to every rule.
To make the vintage chart even more useful, we’ve made it interactive and mobile friendly. Scroll down and enjoy! But if you prefer the PDF version, it’s still available here.

This chart shows the average scores derived from >40 respected critics from whom we collect scores. It covers all regions from which we have data and goes back as far as 1900. The use of aggregated scores means that even small changes between vintages can represent a meaningful difference in quality. We hope you find it useful in restaurants, wine shops and when stocking your cellar.
As our aggregated scores are from a wide range of tasters they reflect the subjectivity of the commentators. Much as professional tasters aim for consistency, we suggest the most useful comparisons are made within regions and between similar styles. Comparisons of scores for top Red Burgundy with those of new-world Pinot Noir will be at best superficial.
Select the style of wine - Red, White, etc. and the desired quality/price level. We consider per bottle prices for Everyday wine to be up to £30/US$40, Mid-range up to £100/US$136, Fine Wine up to £250/US$340 and Super Fine above £250/US$340. All quality bands are calculated using pre-tax prices.
You can drill down from country to region and sub-region etc. as needed. As you drill down it is easier to pick out the highs and lows.
Please leave feedback so we can improve our vintage chart.

Vintage Charts and Harvest Reports

The vintage chart and harvest reports provided by the Wine Scholar Guild gives you the ranking for every French wine region and vintage from 2000 to today.
Andrew Jefford, award-winning wine journalist for Decanter Magazine and author of twelve books on wine including The New France has compiled information and written the vintage charts starting with the 2013 vintage. He is also updating information for the vintages prior to 2013.

Hot, dry August & September, ideal ripening, creating small berries with thick skins. Rain-free harvest. Complete, fleshy reds, rich in color & phenolic content.
Rainless from mid-July to 19 September. Conditions favored colder, water-holding soils; sandy vineyards at disadvantage. Merlot reached very high sugars (well above 1982, 1989). Pomerol is particularly impressive. Healthy, ripe & rich wines with sensual textures.
Hot September holds off botrytis; rain in late October spoils most of crop. Extremely limited appearance of noble rot.
These vintage notes have been prepared by Andrew Jefford, Academic Advisor to the Wine Scholar Guild. New vintage information, and any revisions of previous vintage drinking suggestions, are made each autumn. Use the chart as a guide only; in every vintage there will be outperforming and underperforming wines.

January and February were mild, and March began warm and wet. Budbreak came in mid- to late-March, about two weeks ahead of the long-term average – though there was some frost in inland Médoc at the same time. April was then very hot (the third hottest for 50 years) as well as wet, and the wet, ‘tropical’ weather continued into May (Lagrange in St Julien had 8 inches/200 mm of rain between April 15th and May 15th) meaning intense mildew pressure. The last two weeks of May and the first week of June, though, were dry and warm, and flowering passed off successfully. There was more rain in mid-June, but then eight weeks of largely dry weather, though without heat spikes and with cool nights: steady heat but not fierce heat. Dramatic storms during the week of August 9th to 16th refreshed the vines, and the conditions then turned cooler until the end of the month. September then began in dry, hot style (the driest and hottest first half of the month for 60 years) and harvest got underway speedily, but the second half of the month was cooler and more fretful, the season eventually ending just one week ahead of the long-term average. The style of the wines is fresh, lively, vivid and balanced, without the baroque power of 2018 or the concentrated force of 2019, but with beguiling purity of fruit and floral notes. At the commune scale, Margaux and Pessac-Léognan are both particularly successful, perhaps because Merlot plays a more significant role here than elsewhere on the Left Bank. The dry white wines are excellent.
After a mild, dry start to the year, April was wet and a little cooler than normal, followed by a cool May. Budburst was early, and there was some frost damage in areas set well back from the Gironde on April 13th and May 5th and 6th. Flowering, after the cooler late spring, came as normal from May 20th onwards, though rain during the flowering period caused some irregular fruit set. After an unsettled early June, late June was fiercely hot; July continued hot and dry, with some welcome heavy rain at the end of the month. August was copybook, with a pulse of heat towards the end, by which time the vines were showing signs of heat stress, though early September warmth was more temperate. Once again rain came to the rescue between 23rd and 26th September followed by fine weather at the end of the month and into October: a perfect script for Cabernet Sauvignon, and an untroubled harvest was completed in early October. Magnificent wines can be found in every Left Bank appellation, with St Julien, Margaux and Pessac-Léognan all outstanding. The style of the wines is dense yet vivacious, with striking structure, intensity, purity and poise: they will age very well. The dry whites (including an increasingly large cohort from the Médoc) are scented and attractive.
The first six months of 2018 were extraordinarily wet in Bordeaux: December 2017, then January, March, April and June 2018 all had rainfall above the 30-year average. March and early April were cool, delaying budbreak and flowering, and there was hail in both late May and in July in the southern Médoc; flowering itself, though, took place in fine conditions in the first part of June. Mildew pressure, however, was intense and unremitting due to saturated soils and high levels of humidity. By mid-June, however, temperatures rose and the sun began to shine; a magnificent summer then ensued. July, August and September temperatures were all well above the 30-year-average, and September was notably dry and sunny throughout the month. Drought stress, however, was rare since there was so much water in the ground -- though this did mean that the threat of mildew persisted until well into August, with organically and biodynamically cultivated properties at particular risk (the biodynamic Ch Palmer’s yields were just 11 hl/ha this year, having lost three-quarters of its crop to mildew, while the biodynamic Ch Pontet-Canet lost two-thirds of its crop to mildew). The harvest was lengthy,
