I almost didn’t watch this, because the WS 100 just sucks so much oxygen out of the wine world on its own. It doesn’t need your help. I’m new to the channel, though and was curious about your take. I 100% agree that only one white wine in top 10 is kind of inexcusable, and I appreciate you calling it out. I will not watch your take on this old warhorse in future years, though. I am enjoying you channel overall and appreciate your honesty.

@@NoSediment You’re making a video which I understand why you’re opening those young wines. I’m still sitting on 2005 Montrose and 2010 Giscours. Last year we opened a 1988 Leoville Las Cases and it was an amazing bottle of juice. But I agree Lynch Bages as a 5th growth is overpriced. I bought Durfort-Vivens a, 2nd growth Margaux and a killer wine, at less than half the price as the Lynch. Thing is very few people know or chase the Durfort-Vivens while Lynch Bages is a darling and the price reflects that. Way back 1996 Lynch Bages was actually my first “expensive” bottle of Bordeaux so I fell for the hype too. We learn as we go.

I went to a big Bordeaux tasting for the 2020 vintage this year and the Lynch-Bages and Pichon Lalande were the two most memorable for me.

Marlborough is not a valley. It is a flat plain leading from the ocean to the mountains. There are some valleys as the plain approaches the mountains (or hills really) such as the Awatere Valley. Otherwise Marlborough is as much a valley as the Medoc is. - From a fan of yours from New Zealand.

I don’t know much about the topic of wine publications, but this year’s top ten makes me feel like some of those wineries sponsored Wine Spectator (especially for the #1 and #9 spots) to get a favorable placement on the top 100. What do you think?
@NoSediment
10 ай бұрын
I cannot comment about the sponsorship. But not only publications, but also many wine critics want to keep on the good side of many wineries, because they provide accommodations when inviting and sponsoring trips. 🤷♀️ but I also don’t think that large companies make worse wines, they are some of the most reliable wines vintage after vintage because they have the recourses! 🤷♀️ therefore, it is very hard to comment and and I don’t want to make assumptions. 😅

This WS list is really an absolute joke this year. Just look at the top 3 wines. There are so many better Bordeaux than Lynch Bages (even around the price point of $200). As far as Sonoma Coast Pinots, the Occidental wouldn't even make my top 10. And while I love Brunello and am glad to see representation, the Agiano has never risen to the top of any of the many Brunello tastings in which I've participated. It's a mid-level Brunello. There are so many so much better. WS is doing the consumer a diservice by inflating prices of undeserving wines, and in doing so ultimately hurting these regions by misaligning expectations with experience.
