Our best customer is an educated customer
I'm not an expert for tasting
and rating wines, even though I have taste and knowledge
about European wines, it's still not enough to responsibly
say what wine is good or better just because I like it or
dislike it.
There are guys with many years
of education and they know why is this wine better than
others, they are more than wine drinkers and wine lovers.
They are the experts they can taste year, type of grapes
used, some of them can taste the exact region of territory
where this grapes are grown. They can taste sun, rain and
soil in the wine. They are tasting just numbered glasses of
wine without any preferences and knowledge what kind wine
they are tasting. In Europe is also difference between times
of harvest , some farmers waiting until first frost and
grapes looks like ugly raisins , and than is added Kabinet
or late crop into the name of the wine. This is little risky
for farmers because there isn't always better wine and they
can lose all crop.
There is much more than some
sweetness , acidity and tannins what all amateurs can feel.
Unbelievable but true.
This way you can buy high
quality wine from winery what you never heard. For example
you can enjoy better wine from Czech republic because there
was weather just perfect for this type of grapes, than from
the best of the best French wines just because there was
really bad weather in same year, So they might be same
retail price because of the name of winery, but quality
should be foolish.
Also be careful, when you
buying rated wine, look if the year match the year what is
rated, I've seen some retailers in New York, who were
selling rated wine , but it was rated year before or after
the year what they were selling, means they trying to sell
wine, because it WAS rated when it WAS good wine , it
doesn't mean that year before or year later it was the same
wine / it might be but usually won't be.
I'm using the Wine Spectator
because I've got subscription of this magazine that's why I
know their tasters for rating are from all over the world.
There are more magazines with rated wines what I cannot
recommend because I'm not sure about it.
