Your lowest Cellartracker Scored Wine in Your Cellar

Stumbled on this thread and took a look. I don’t know if this counts, but: NV Bedell Raspberry – 60 points from a single scorer

I really can’t imagine when I would ever open that.

Surprisingly, next lowest (looking at just the CT score) is 2013 Remoissenet Père et Fils Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Poissenot at 85 points.

Not a particularly low score but my lowest is 2012 Yarra Yering Shiraz Underhill (CT 87 points)

I loved this at the winery and we ended up having it at our wedding. We have a stash for anniversaries [cheers.gif]

FWIW
2011 Edmunds St. John Heart of Gold 84 points

2008 Deutz Champagne Amour de Deutz Rosé – 82 points (though Brad Baker says 88-90)

And after that, Bueker sunk the battleship on 2014 Rhys Pinot Noir Swan Terrace with his 75 for an average of 84.5

A bunch of them have no scores… but lowest is a birthyear.
1979 Mouton Rothschild - 88.8

I’ll live with that…

Interesting to take a fresh look at this after a few years. The two lowest wines in my cellar now are both head-scratchers:

  1. 2009 Clotaire Michal St. Joseph - Raj Parr told me this particular wine is great. Not to get into a debate over his cred, but it should certainly be better than a 74.3 average would indicate!

  2. 1993 Domaine Georges Mugneret-Gibourg Echezeaux - WTF? (78, but from only a single note)

I don’t understand the average score on that Rhys. I have the same bottle (and it’s my lowest scoring if you ignore the unrated wines), and the 75 is the only score I see. Where did the 84.5 come from? Did it somehow include the 93-94 score Loren gave his bottle in the tasting note itself?

Just below Bueker’s note is one where the person scored it 94 (with no accompanying note).

Yeah, I don’t see that. And since I don’t even know how to block people, I don’t know why I wouldn’t see it.

u have the setting set as show only score/notes (or ignore score only notes)…

Fun to revisit this a few years later. My current lowest is this sauternes at 82:

2015 Château Haut-Bergeron L’Ilot de Haut Bergeron

I’d probably put it more in the mid-high 80’s if I was scoring, but I do so infrequently these days…

There’s a setting to show/not show noteless scores - see the “Note Display Settings” link underneath the median score listing on a wine’s page for the toggle.

Turns out I do not like Swan Terrace, despite begin a big Rhys fan. I have had negative reactions to other vintages as well, just without the vindictive score!

2006 Faively Mercurey 1er Cru Clos du Roy 84.5

2016 Bedrock Wine Co. Riesling Zweiter Zweieiiger Zwilling 88.3

Updating this, I now have more than 250 wines without scores, the Luneau-Papin and Joguet are still at the bottom and the 2010 Puzelat is now an 89. Newer additions at the bottom include 2009 Patricia Green Cellars Pinot Noir Mysterious at 75 points and 1998 Domaine Gramenon Côtes du Rhône Villages Les Laurentides and 2013 Les Vins Contés (Olivier Lemasson) Cheville de Fer at 79 points. I’m still not even remotely concerned about any of these scores.

2013 Domaine Sylvain Langoureau Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Beaune Clos Marc at 84 points
2013 Bodegas Olivares Monastrell Altos de la Hoya Finca Hoya de Santa Ana Jumilla at 85.1 points

2014 Rhys Pinot Swan Terrace 84.5
2015 Leroy Bourgogne Blanc 88.4

2005 Frédéric Magnien Mercurey
2004 Domaine Henri Gouges Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru Les Pruliers

My experience with these wines is consistent with the low scores. Just keep hoping time will help… not likely though.

2014 Rhys Swan Terrace is lowest in my cellar too. Glad that Buek took 2 for the team and threw the red card, but now I’m super bummed. [cry.gif]
