100 Point Rating Guide

96-100 Extraordinary A wine of finesse, complexity, and expression. True to variety and region. Perfect balance of flavors with a long finish.
90-95 Excellent True to variety and region, with terrific complexity and balance. While not a wine for the ages, a superior example.
85-89 Good Meets your expectations, with sound flavors and balance. Might have limited complexity or be short on the palate. A sound wine.
80-84 Average Drinkable, might not have as much varietal character. Simple flavors, no flaws, but nothing special.
75-79 Below Average Might contain one flaw, simple straight-forward flavors, off-balance, unpleasant.
60-74 Undrinkable, Flawed Contains significant flaws. Unpleasant, not commercially acceptable.

Like the diluted piss of an exotic animal. Life is too precious to waste it drinking wines like this. Spend the extra few bucks and get something decent.

I feel guilty even wasting my breath on this, let alone the ink, but I think you all need a scolding for wasting your milk money here.

I seriously doubt anyone who buys plonk like this will bother to check a review before charging into the sea like a filthy lemming.

Subtler, softer nose, brighter color. Lighter dilute palate, would say it was overcropped. A fair rendition but way below the Clos du Bois tasted initially. Tasted blind -- Italian??

Light nose, with undertones of perhaps vanilla and apple. Rather bland taste, medium-bodied. (Dan R)

Faint nose, a bit sour. Not horrible but disappointing. Really flat.

Tart and sour. Not dry enough for a pinot grigio. Not very balanced overall.

Nose: floral, a little wet underbrush. Taste: too much acid and vegetable taste.

Soft, watered down. However, the finish is nice/lingering.

1Re: Lemmings and Lemons

To Clarify:

Specifically, I'm referring to the Eco Domani Pinot Grigio...but I think the same could be said for a great many of the wines reviewed in the 5-10 range. There really isn't much service at that level, and I think we can all help alot more people, a lot more, by focusing on higher quality, smaller production wines, as folks who buy those do tend to research their wines.
