5 Evaluating Wines: Scoring Systems

Abstract

Abstract Judging and evaluating wine are an important part of the wine world, especially the marketing part. Traditional scoring systems were based on a 20-point scale. One of the most influential was the Davis score card, in which points were deducted for defects. Only 2 points were given for general quality. Another 20-point system is the Roseworthy score card, developed in Australia. More recently a 100-point scoring system, introduced by Robert M. Parker, has become popular, and many wine critics have adopted it. (However, the scale starts at 50.) McCoy remarks that the popularity for American consumers is that it is similar to school grades.
