Is there an imaginary line at 90 points? Many people that follow Parker or WS scores believe so, but is this a function of the scale or the people reading the review. Could it not be said, that the same people would probably only buy Dale A wines or Decanter ***** wines? Frankly, I have no issue with any rating system anyone wishes to use. Parker's 100 point (ok 50 point) scale can easily be converted to Dales A,B,C,D scale. And even Dale doesn't really use ABCD, he uses + and - so his 4 grade scale now becomes a 12 grade scale. It's his scale, he can do whatever he wants with it (as long as he keeps posting notes). It's what WE do with the scores and notes that matter. Andy |
