Parker's Scoring System
96-100: An extraordinary wine of profound and complex character displaying all the attributes expected of a classic wine of its variety.
90-95: An outstanding wine of exceptional complexity and character.
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 short, 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 he deems to be unacceptable.
