The 100 Point Scoring System (from www.robertparker.com):
96-100: An extraordinary wine of profound and complex character displaying all the attributes expected of a classic wine of its variety. Wines of this caliber are worth a special effort to find, purchase and consume.
90 - 95: An outstanding wine of exceptional complexity and character. In short, these are terrific wines.
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 essence, 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 deemed to be unacceptable.

When Robert Parker developed his point scale the 100 Point Score was only reserved for a few wines. Wines that were better than extraordinary – wines that represented perfection.
During the heyday of Robert Parker's influence, a 100-point score could either bring an unknown producer into the spotlight or raise demand for a well-known wine into the stratosphere.
I read this nice little story by MARK SQUIRES from the beginning of the Parker Erea that highlighted his influence. He wrote: One day in the 1980s I called CALIFORNIAN WINERY Groth to inquire about their 1985 Groth Reserve. It was about 5:30 p.m. EST, and I got very lucky as Dennis Groth himself answered the phone. I said that I really had liked the 1984 Reserve and I had vowed to get some of the '85 when released, and I was wondering when it would be. The somewhat exasperated reply was that it had been just released and was already sold out. Huh? He said, "You haven't heard?" I wondered what it was I was supposed to have heard. Evidently, some guy named Robert Parker had just given it the first 100-point score ever for a California wine. It vanished in an eyeblink, leaving Groth besieged with eager collectors.

When I checked today on robertparker.com the wine is rated 98 points – apparently having been downgraded by a few points. When I worked with fine wine in London, I remember well how prices for the 2008 Lafite almost tripled in a few days after the wine was rated 98-100 points by Parker – the wine had not changed but the score caused demand to sore … but the wine was in the end also rated 98 points.

Robert Parker once said that a 100-point wine is based 90% on the tasting quality of the wine and 10% on pure emotion. So a perfect score is not about an objective measure, instead, it is a subjective decision by the taster.

You keep asking me what my 100 point wines are in the comments but I haven’t rated many wines 100 points. One of the most memorable ones on the channel was the 1863 Burmester Colheita I tasted. But I have 4 wines here that received a perfect 100-point score on Robert Parker.com – So let’s find out whether I also feel pure emotion and give out 100 points to one of these beauties …
