Every year since 1988, Wine Spectator has compiled a list of the most exciting wines we’ve reviewed over the past 12 months. These 100 wines reflect significant trends, recognize outstanding producers and spotlight successful regions and vintages around the world.

In 2011, our list was selected from more than 16,000 new releases our editors rated in our independent blind tastings. More than 5,400 of these wines earned outstanding or classic ratings (90 points or higher on Wine Spectator's 100-point scale). We narrowed the list down based on four criteria: quality (represented by score); value (reflected by release price); availability (measured by cases made or imported); and what we call the “X-factor”–the excitement generated by a rising-star producer, a benchmark wine or a significant milestone for a wine region. But no equation determines the final selections: These choices reflect our editors’ judgment and passion about the wines we tasted.

In this year’s list, 12 countries are represented, and quality remains high, with an average score of 93 points. The average price per bottle dipped from last year from $48 to $44, compared with a $70 average for 90-point wines reviewed this year. We hope that you enjoy this list of exciting values, emerging stars and time-honored stalwarts and that our Top 100 of 2011 leads you to more deeply explore the world of wine.

Hall
Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley Kathryn Hall 2008

96 points / $90
2,450 cases made
California

With a successful real-estate empire, Craig and Kathryn Hall didn’t take any shortcuts with Hall estate, which comprises several hundred acres in vines spread over six vineyards in Napa Valley. The 2008 Kathryn Hall Cabernet is a blend from four of the sites. Winemaker Steve Leveque added a splash of Merlot to round out the texture and heighten the aromatics. The wine captures the essence of Napa Cabernet yet is distinguished from other great 2008 Cabs by its seamless texture, wonderful focus, purity of flavor and persistent finish.

Domaine Huët
Vouvray Moelleux Clos du Bourg Première Trie 2009

96 points / $69
760 cases made
Loire Valley, France

The nearly 15-acre Clos du Bourg vineyard features a mix of clay, silt and pebbles over limestone subsoils, producing this Loire Valley domaine’s richest expression of Chenin Blanc. If weather permits, as it did in 2009, beneficial Botrytis cinerea (noble rot) dehydrates the late-ripening grapes, whose fresh acidity counterbalances the resulting sweet wine’s concentrated fruit and spice notes. This Première Trie represents Huët winemaker Noël Pinguet’s top selection of hand-harvested grapes.

Campogiovanni
Brunello di Montalcino 2006

96 points / $50
7,000 cases made
Tuscany, Italy

The 50-acre Campogiovanni estate in Montalcino was acquired in the early 1980s by Chianti producer Agricola San Felice. About 30 acres of vines, the oldest of them planted in the mid-1960s, are used for its Brunello. Winemaker Leonardo Bellaccini replanted other parcels in 1982, 1988 and 1997, using both selection and clones. This red, aged three years in large, Slavonian oak barrels and one year in bottle, benefited from the excellent 2006 vintage.

Dehlinger
Pinot Noir Russian River Valley 2008

95 points / $50
1,050 cases made
Sonoma County, California

Tom Dehlinger was one of the early true believers in Pinot Noir from the Russian River Valley. The family’s 45-acre vineyard is on a ridge of red gravelly soil 13 miles inland from the coast. From the start, the emphasis has been on small amounts of hand-worked, barrel-aged wines made with the aim of extracting, developing and preserving maximum flavor from the grapes. This rich, layered 2008, from estate fruit, made a challenging vintage look easy.

Baer
Ursa Columbia Valley 2008

95 points / $35
1,095 cases made
Washington

Winemaker Lance Baer founded Baer Winery in 2000, producing his wines in Woodinville, Wash., using grapes from Columbia Valley vineyards. After his death in 2007, his sister Lisa and his father, Les, took the reins and hired consulting winemaker Erica Orr. Baer’s signature wine, Ursa, Latin for “bear,” has always been impressive for its suppleness and pure flavors. The 2008, a blend that focuses on Merlot and Cabernet Franc, is the winery’s best wine yet.

Quinta do Vallado
Touriga Nacional Douro 2008

95 points / $55
2,188 cases made
Douro Valley, Portugal

The Ferreira family, once best-known for Port, branched out to table wine in 1995 at this estate overlooking the river Corgo. (They later sold the Port house.) Vallado’s team includes cousins João Ribeiro, Francisco Ferreira and consulting winemaker Francisco Olazabal, who also works at his family’s Quinta do Vale Meão. Rather than a blend of grapes, this wine is a rare single-variety Touriga Nacional, a tricky grape to fully ripen. But the 2008 is dark and concentrated, with finesse.

Domenico Clerico
Barolo Ciabot Mentin Ginestra 2006

96 points / $90
1,500 cases made
Piedmont, Italy

This Barolo comes from 13.5 acres in the Ginestra cru of Monforte d’Alba, the southernmost commune of the Barolo zone. Owner Domenico Clerico took over the business from his father, who sold his grapes directly to the local cooperative, in 1976. Clerico purchased the Ginestra parcels in 1981; the first vintage of this wine was 1982. Since its debut, Ciabot Mentin Ginestra has consistently been one of the Barolo appellation’s finer bottlings.

Alain Graillot
Crozes-Hermitage La Guiraude 2009

94 points / $55
650 cases made
Northern Rhône, France

A selection of Graillot’s best lots and bottled in exceptional vintages only, La Guiraude is 100 percent Syrah from vines planted on alluvial soils in the heart of the Crozes plateau. The warm, dry 2009 growing season produced an early harvest of ripe grapes balanced with fresh acidity. Second-generation winemaker Maxime Graillot fermented with stems and aged the wine 80 percent in used oak and 20 percent in vat for one year, to add complexity and structure without masking the fruit.

Château de St.-Cosme
Gigondas Valbelle 2009

94 points / $58
1,175 cases made
Southern Rhône, France

In 2009, proprietor Louis Barruol cofermented Grenache with 10 percent Syrah in cement vats before aging this wine in a range of used barrels. The fruit is sourced from 80-year-old vines in five vineyards. The 2009 vintage began with a devastating spring hailstorm that reduced buds and, ultimately, yields, by 50 percent. Hot, dry weather followed, and the remaining grapes ripened fully with additional concentration and tannins. As a result, the wine delivers noticeable power and structure, ideal for cellaring.
