The 1995 vintage was, overall, a great year for many wine regions. France enjoyed an excellent year with Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne, Alsace and the Rhône producing great wines. 
Our Wine Expert currently recommends the following wines for this year:
This Year in History: Fun Fact: After setting sail in September of ’94, British woman Lisa Clayton completes solo sail non-stop around the world.
Eurovision Winner: Norway with the song "Nocturne" by Secret Garden

Bordeaux: The 1995 wine vintage produced consistent Bordeaux wines that reached full maturity by 2012. Superb weather in July and August augured well for the crop, however rain in September slightly impaired the quality. Unlike 1994, the rain only lasted for just over a week and those producers that delayed harvesting were rewarded with a harvest of mature grapes. The wines produced from these vineyards are dense tannic affairs that should mature well.
Portugal: The 1995 port wine vintage is rated as very good. If it hadn't directly followed the quite exceptional 1994 Vintage, 1995 could well have been a fully declared Vintage. It did however produce exceptionally good Single Quintas with concentrated, fruity and well-structured ports. The 1995 port vintage also offers plenty of good examples of barrel aged (tawny) port from established producers.
