The wine ratings in this guide are those
of Robert M. Parker, Jr., the author of
Parker’s Wine Buyer’s Guide.
He writes that a rating of 90-100 is the
equivalent of an A in school, “given for
outstanding or special effort.” Ratings of
80-89 equal a B: “Many of the wines that
fall into this range are great values.” 70-
79 represents a C, or average mark. Be-
low 70 is a D or F, “the sign of an
unbalanced, flawed, or terribly dull or di-
luted wine.”
