Wine Ratings - Gary Vaynerchuk Looks at Three 93-Point Chardonnays
Filed in archive Vocabluary by Greg Cruey on February 10, 2009
I started out to comment on a recent episode of Gary Vaynerchuk's show, Chardonnay tasting featuring Australia, California and France, but I got distracted by his reference to the Wine Spectator and the Robert Parker rating scales.

Vinquire has a good explanation of the rating scales. While Spectator and Parker are the most used scales, they do have competition...

But as I was saying, Vaynerchuk looks at three Chardonnays: a Chassagne Montrachet (the 2005 Louis Latour Morgeots Chassagne Montrachet - $60 and "underwhelming" according to Gary), a Sonoma Chardonnay (the 2006 Dehlinger Estate Chardonnay- $32 and "nice complexity" ), and an Australian Chardonnay (2007 Shaw And Smith M3 Chardonnay - $30 and "impressive, a bargain of a wine").

Of course, Gary says it better. And Gary says a lot more. You can watch the 19-minutes show here.
