It’s time to revisit the issue of wine ratings used here and on the podcast. Earlier this year, I flirted with the idea of discontinuing the system I was using but listener and reader response was so compelling that I stayed the course. Recent feedback has compelled me to post a poll on the right sidebar to let you help me figure out what to do (if anything). The 20 point scale I have been using is the first choice, followed by the 100 point scale used by Robert Parker, Steve Tanzer and the Wine Spectator (with subtle differences in degrees between them). The 5 star system used by Decanter and some others rounds out the choices. If you have other ideas, choose “Other” and post them in the comments here. I’ll keep this open for a few weeks before making any decisions.
Thanks!
