My comments the other day sparked a good discussion about the usefulness of ratings for sorting through the massive amount of wines out there and keeping track of them in cellar management systems or tasting logs. Since I am not a super-taster like Mr. Parker, I will continue to use my 20 point scale. I also liked David’s suggestion of calibrating the scale with a “7”, which might lead to an interesting show theme.
Thanks for all your thoughts on the subject.
