I have scored quite a few wines on this channel, and I am going to continue scoring wines for you guys. Not because I think that there is no other way to talk about the quality of the wine but and because I think, that scores are perfect but because I think they are a helpful addition to my reviews as they represent a firm commitment. I know, however, that scores are very confusing to some of you, so I decided to show you how scores work by tasting two extreme examples next to each other: First: Likely one of the worst wines in the world. And Second: A wine that received a perfect score of 100 points from Robert Parker and is therefore probably one of the best wines in the world …
I realize that scores are a tricky topic and I have received a few comments on the latest videos that I have to talk about. I score wines because it makes it easier for you and my customers to understand which wines I preferred in a tasting and because it helps ME keep track of which wines, I liked best
One big problem with Scores is that they can be confusing as few people seem to understand the 100-point scale so let’s start with that. There are many different scoring systems but by far the most important one today is the 100-point system.
It does not start at 0 but instead starts at 50 points for an unacceptable wine and then goes up to 100 points for a perfect wine. This is loosely based on the US High School grading system where a score of 50-60 points is an F.
