Experiencing The Delights Only a Mature Wine Can Offer: Cellar Selections 2012

Even that 80 percent of wines purchased are consumed within 48 hours,there are wines that deserves to be kept in the wine cellar for future sipping.

We know it's not easy—or cheap—to keep a cellar stocked with selections worthy of future enjoyment.But we also know that some of the best wines in the world deserve a little love in the cellar,stated the wine magazine.

"To a large extent,our list of Top 100 Cellar Selections reflects which classic wine regions released the best vintages during the past year.In 2011,that means the list is heavy on 2007 Barolo and 2006 Brunello di Montalcino,but light on the terrific 2009 Bordeaux and Burgundies,which are largely yet to be reviewed,"explained the editors of Wine Enthusiast Magazine.
