The USA Wine Ratings looks to recognize, reward, and help promote wines that have successfully been created to identify with and target a specific wine drinker. For any wine brand to earn its place on a retailer’s shelf or a restaurant’s wine list -  and then vitally stay there - they need to be marketable and consumer-driven. USA Ratings will single out and shine the spotlight on those wine brands that consumers really want to buy and have a clear market value for trade buyers. The 3 main criteria that USA Wine Ratings evaluated the wines on were Quality, Value, and Package.
