Wine scores

Wine scores are numerical ratings that reflect an expert's evaluation of a wine's quality, usually on a 100-point scale. Higher scores indicate wines that are more highly regarded for their aroma, flavor, balance, complexity, and overall expression. These scores help consumers gauge the potential appeal and quality of a wine, guiding purchasing decisions. However, taste is subjective, and a high score doesn't guarantee personal enjoyment. Scores are often given by wine critics or publications after tasting and assessing wines, providing a standardized reference point in the wine industry.
