I, by accident, came up with a new rating system. I’m going to try it for a while, as it makes more sense for the way I enjoy wines.
I’m going to try a 4-tier system for a while:
nose - forepalate - midpalate - finish
I just had a Beaujolais that I described as (on a scale of 10) 7 - 6 - 1 - 3
The midpalate all but fell away, but the finish was actually a nice recovery.
Anybody else have their own rating system?

Sounds good! Looking for a Beaujolais i’ll want to buy many of.
I like Ray Tuppatsch’s system: Killer, Staggering, Excellent, Very Good, etc. However, your system seems thoughtfully compartmentalized. ![[welldone.gif] [welldone.gif]](/uploads/db3686/original/2X/f/fc9709a841aa9379fd892a9cf0b535b05f473b86.gif)
the Zanotti binary system:
0 equals not worth drinking
1 equals worth drinking
alan
how many m on the end of the word yummmm…
That’s similar to my system:
1 equals pour in mouth
0 equals pour in sink
