In 2015, we posted close to 70 tasting reports covering around 9,000 wines, including 8,000 wines tasted by James and close to 1,000 wines tasted by our contributing editor Nick Stock. These reports include some of the recent exciting new releases from 2011 Barbarescos, 2011 Barolos and 2010 Brunello Riservas in Italy for instance to 2012 Bordeaux and 2012 Napa reds as well as the much-talked about 2014 En Primeur in 2015, plus wines from Argentina, Chile, Spain, New Zealand, Australia, South Africa and Slovenia, among others.
After tasting all these wines, James has compiled quite a few formidable Top 100 lists such as the Top 100 Wines of 2015, Top 100 Italian Wines of 2015, 100 Top 2014 Bordeaux Futures, Top 100 Bordeaux of 2014, 100 Top 2012 Bordeaux Reds, Top 100 Alsace Wines and Top 100 Andes Wines of 2015.
