I'm thinking that is the point of the question - a favorite might not be one that you (or anybody else) scored highly. I think drinkability is much more of a factor when it comes to a personal favorite. Probably a bunch of other factors too. I think it is more the every day drinker thing versus the (so called) best or highest rated.
