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. In the early 2000s, two titans of the wine industry clashed: Jancis Robinson and Robert Parker had both tasted the 2003 Pavi,e and their ratings and descriptions of the wine could not have been more different. Parker loved it while Robinson hated it. In this video, I will taste the wine that they were fighting about, to set the record straight. But this is not the only controversial wine I will try. I have a whole lineup of wines prepared that are loved by some and hated by others. Taste is subjective, and it is therefore impossible to produce a wine that everyone loves. What’s more: An experienced wine taster, over time, often develops a different palate. While a beginner might look for bright fruit flavors and a juicy texture, balancing the acidity with some sweetness, wine experts often look for extremes: Wines with an extreme mouthfeel or extraordinary flavors that they have not experienced before. I think that is also the case with music: Kids music is easy going and the lyrics are predictable. Some people will keep listening to easygoing and predictable music when they become adults. While others look for challenging sounds and lyrics. All of the wines that I am going to taste represent a challenge – but will I like them, or not?
