The point is that the crushworthy wine was an excellent wine, but missing a component that I personally enjoy in a wine that the swoonworthy wine had. So, if the crushworthy wine received a 91 and I forsake the swoonworthy wine because of the 89 points - I am the one losing out. Me - the consumer. And isn't that (forgive me here) the point of the points? My taste buds and Dr. Jay Miller's are not the same! <BR/><BR/>And absolutely - you will soon be seeing this post on the 89 Project blog.

It defines WHY the wine got an 89- because it was not quite "s-w-o-o-n" worthy, or as I would describe it, "technically perfect but missing that certain something special." This is what the 89 rating SHOULD be all about (as compared to, say, 'great name and big price, mediocre wine,' or 'WOW! This is GREAT! Oh, it's from there.'dhonighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17514277845922195085noreply@blogger.com
