The 100 Point Scoring System (from www.robertparker.com):
96-100: An extraordinary wine of profound and complex character displaying all the attributes expected of a classic wine of its variety. Wines of this caliber are worth a special effort to find, purchase and consume.
90 - 95: An outstanding wine of exceptional complexity and character. In short, these are terrific wines.
80 - 89: A barely above average to very good wine displaying various degrees of finesse and flavor as well as character with no noticeable flaws.
70 - 79: An average wine with little distinction except that it is soundly made. In essence, a straightforward, innocuous wine.
60 - 69: A below-average wine containing noticeable deficiencies, such as excessive acidity and/or tannin, an absence of flavor or possibly dirty aromas or flavors.
50 - 59: A wine deemed to be unacceptable.

Famous wine writer Hugh Johnson once said: “Great wine doesn’t make statements, it poses questions. And I don’t mean the question of why is this so expensive?”

But this is a question I often ask myself when tasting the quote-unquote “great wines of the world”. Wine is strange: Fermented grape juice can cost anything between 1 and 1 Million Dollars depending on the label on the bottle and the story it tells.

That means that you experience costly disappointments but sometimes it means that you can find real bargains: Wine that tastes like Petrus but is actually from Portugal …

This is why I am back with another installment of David vs Goliath: Leon has selected 6 wines for me to taste blind. All six are made from the same grape variety or varieties but one of them is VERY expensive while the others are affordable.

Uninfluenced by the label I will find out whether these Davids can compete or even beat Goliath…
