I wonder if somebody can reference me to the place (preferably WWW page) where I can find possibly complete and trustworthy table of vintages, regions, wineries. I am particulary interested in years 1990-1998 in entire Europe. It looks like I will be visiting some wine regions this year (Spain, France, perhaps Germany) so, I need the guidance. I prefere the normalised reference i.e 100 point scale:
100 - Exceptional, 95 - Excellent, ....
Can anybody help me?
So, far i managed to find only partial information and usually not ordere, so it is quite difficult for me as a newbie to sort out really valuable information.
Also the information which vintages of which marks are worth storage for longer time would be very helpful.
Regards

Try www.winespectator.com . They have most, if not all the information you seek on their site.

Thanks for immediate reply.
Wine Spectator I already know and I founded it a little not sufficient. The general tables they provide are not specific enough. There are of course in-depth articles concerning particular wines, but thats not exactly what I am looking for.
So is the fact with other "popular" sites like "Food and Wine" magazine and so on.
But, perhaps I expect too much. In fact it shouldn't be too easy to find out which wine is fine. Otherwise, it would be no fan with all this stuff.
Thanks anyway, and any further reference will be greatly appreciated.
