Here is the standard rating system:

95-100 Classic
90-94 Outstanding
85-89 Very Good
80-84 Good
70-79 Average
Below 70 Below Average

as listed on the Wine Spectator website.

My experience though is that 80 is something of a "magic number". Anything higher is usually considered at least "pretty good", anything lower than 80 is usually considered "not recommended".

I just opened another bottle of Paringa Shiraz 2002 the other night, and I recommend it yet again as a very good wine that is very inexpensive. I practically stole this stuff at $7 a bottle! It is very enjoyable. I think it would still be a good buy at $9-$10 a bottle. WS87. My personal rating: 89.

Other comments/opinions welcomed and encouraged.

We would really like to hear what you have to say
