Wine retailer transforms Parker's 2000 Pavie note

Is Mua the Polynesian version of Moi?

Serge,

It is also an interesting anthropological experiment to see how that note has promulgated across half a dozen retailers. However, the note is real - from Wine Advocate # 134, associated with the score 95-96. The 100 was a later revision.

Indeed, Parker has used “knucklehead” quite liberally, not only towards you (mue? moi? mee?) but towards Aussie-critics (“trying to portray Australia as some sort of monolithic wine producing region is a knucklehead attitude”), traditionalist scum (“All except a few knuckleheads still lost in a 19th century time warp are making far better wine today than they were a mere decade ago”), and a host of other unworthy detractors.

Yep. In the RMP dictionary, knucklehead = someone who doesn’t agree with me. It’s unfortunate.
