The Ian D’Agata Wine Review, an international wine web magazine founded by Ian D’Agata in 2024, is proud to announce that it has entered an agreement with Wine-Searcher, the world’s leading online wine search engine, to publish its scores on the Wine-Searcher website. “I have admired Wine-Searcher’s body of work for many years, and have routinely used the website to identify wine prices and scores of wines from all over the world ”said Ian D’Agata Wine Review President and founder, Ian D’Agata. “Wine Searcher is a state-of-the-art tool for all those seeking up to date wine scores and who wish to buy wines, but also for those who seek out information about wine and wine regions thanks to its encyclopedia and wine articles”.

Given that the Ian D’Agata Wine Review is an advertisement-free web magazine that lives by paid subscription membership, its scores will appear on the Wine-Searcher website with a three-month delay from the date of publication in the magazine (Clearly, this means you still have to subscribe to the Ian D’Agata Wine Review if you want to read and use the scores in rapid, timely fashion).

David Allen MW, Wine Director for Wine-Searcher, states that “We are delighted to bring Ian on board. We have long been fans of his wine writing, and his books on Italy’s native wine grapes have been essential guides as we update our encyclopedia’’.
