Talk:Robert Parker (wine critic)

Burgundy and recently handed over coverage of the region to an assistant). But other winemakers are beginning to speak up. Last year, for instance, Parker was publicly slammed by the Mondavis, the first family of American wine. He had alleged, in print, that the Mondavi winery was slipping because it was not fashioning the kind of blockbuster Cabernets that are currently Napa Valley's stock in trade (and that Parker loves). The Mondavis pointedly replied that their aim is to craft elegant, food-friendly wines, not critic bait. More interestingly, the buzz at this year's annual Bordeaux barrel tastings was that several prominent winemakers known for turning out turbocharged wines have now renounced that approach and are embracing a more traditional style that emphasizes finesse over power."

article is given as a source. The BBC article does not mention the movie "Mondovino", though. Also, no such statement is made in the movie. I also do not see how that movie itself could "claim" anything - it consists entirely of interviews, so only the people being interviewed can make claims. Let me know if I misunderstood the sentence - but I really think it should be changed (delete the reference to the movie? or someone has to rewatch it and check, who is actually making this claim ;) )

I think there are some major philosophical differences on the use of points on either side of the Atlantic, but I'm not quite sure how to fit them into the article - perhaps someone with more experience of marketing on both sides of the Atlantic could contribute to the article? 1195:
samples and asked Parker to retaste. Upon arriving, Parker was attacked by Hebrard's dog as the manager stood idly by and watched. When Parker asked for a bandage to stop the bleeding from his leg, Parker says Hebrard instead gave him a copy of the offending newsletter. Hebrard denies that Parker was bleeding. (McCoy, pages 159-160)

I am a wine consumer, and I found much truth in this article, especially his impact on wine quality, prices, and availability, both good and, now that he is famous and powerful, bad. I also find his objectivity and thus his value as a critic lessened since his early guides from the 1980's. Still to
1597:
The article repeatedly insists that Parker is "pro-consumer", whereas many in the wine industry feel he is completely beholden to his pet wineries, as evidenced by his frequent refusal to do blind tastings. (This latter point is one I have heard many Australian winemakers complain bitterly about, and
1320:
I see Fmh1964's edit of 30 May 2007 tries to imply that British wine writers use points in a similar way to Parker, just out of 20. I'd disagree. The "20-pointers' seem to use points more for internal use just within a particular tasting, or at most within a particular class of wine, rather than as
954:
I've edited the first paragraph to a more NPOV, according to my journalistic training, and reasonable international knowledge of the wine world, because it was somewhat platitudinal in vocab, and boosterish. Some subtle rearrangement and substitution. This should be acceptable both to his friends and
1908:
To my reading, this paragraph simply parrots the definition of ethical standards, and seems to suggest that Parker abides by them, but provides no basis for that belief. All conmen seek to convince their victims that they abide by ethical standards; I'm not suggesting that Parker is a conman, simply
1738:
As I copy-edited the article, I kept an eye out for bias. As it stands currently, I don't see any particularly obvious bias in the article, but then I'm not intimately familiar with the wine world. Perhaps everyone could take a look at it and see if we're ready to remove the POV/neutrality banner?
1702:
Well, I agree that some of the parts you quote seem like pro-Parker POV. But the section "Parker's flexible ethical standards" on the other hand contains fairly anti-Parker POV, and we're writing an encyclopedia rather than a review of, or discussion board on, Parker or Parkerized wines. In general,

Because of his powerful influence, his experiences have ranged from having two chateau owners offer him the sexual favours of their daughters to receiving death threats. On one occasion the manager of Chateau Cheval Blanc, Jacques Hebrard, was outraged at Parker's evaluation of his 81 vintage barrel
982:
The Burgundy market has become confused since Robert Parker stopped visiting Burgundy. No one knows if they should believe Pierre Rovani, no one really believes Steve Tanzer other than crazy Burgundy geeks and me, who is Clive Coates anyhow(?), and the Wine Spectator will no doubt review the vintage
1592:
OK, before making some comments let me state that I am (a) partially involved in the wine industry and (b) more or less despise Parker and everything he stands for. So with that negative bias acknowledged, let me make some observations of my own before making any changes to the article. Basically I
1136:
Yep, well aware I can edit, but if I know that I don't know enough about a subject (I came here, surprisingly enough, because I wanted to know who this 'Parker' guy was, rather than because I'm a domain expert...) then I'll just politely suggest the article may be flawed and move on. And I'm not a
1103:
The section on his ranking system for wines implies that this is a universally accepted standard - living in the UK I've never heard of him until reading this article, let alone his points system for wines. It certainly is not used on store shelves in this country or anywhere else in Europe as far
1815:
Well, feel free to cut down the article's length to 1/3 or 1/4 of what it is now. The problem with the article isn't just that it lacks sources for some statements, it's that much of it is unencyclopedic and the article gives a "schizo-POV" impression: some parts celebrate him, other are likely on
1658:
I agree with the 3 of you. However the only serious sources I found to-date are McCoy (2005) and Agostini and Guichard (2007, in French), the latter being very critical of Parker. I have tried to take the best pieces of Agostini and Guichard to make this article closer to a NPOV but as I can see a

I actually found two other sources to back the claim, one of which is the Los Angeles Times. So the claim was correct, but the citation was not. However, I think the article may still be misleading. It seems like holding the wine in your mouth for five seconds and then spitting it out is a very

McCoy reports the positive article written by Parker in the second issue of The Baltimore/Washington Wine Advocate on McArthur Liquors and his manager Addy Bassin. However Parker did not mention that the same Addy Bassin gave Parker the first file of 600 customers who received for free the first
1418:
In the section "Impact on the supply: the "Parkerization" of wine" the following statement is made: "This point of view is presented in the 2004 documentary, Mondovino, which claims that Parker is "a man whose tastes are irrevocably changing the way some French wines are made" ". A link to a BBC
2179:
How in god's name does the comma add anything? Just let sentences run. With minimal stoppage. That is what sentences are for. Trying to read an entire article like this is the literary equivalent of trying to do John Cleece's Silly Walk. You are constantly stopping and jerking, interrupting your

Completed a major copy edit. Wow, that was a tough one. Updated a lot of the references, bringing them up to date with the style guide, and chasing down refs that were broken or incorrect. I added a bunch of new ones as I found them, too. Deleted one or two insupportable statements that have
1473:
Under "The 100 point system," the claim is made that Parker can tell everything about a wine in five seconds. A reference to an episode of 60 Minutes is given. That clip is available online—I've added a reference with the link—and I cannot find anything in the interview to justify this claim.
1398:
Having read Agostini and Guichard's account of the 2003 Pavie (in French unfortunately), it seems to me that Parker's positive comments were not enough to keep the price up. This is why I preferred to delete the initial text with citations as it gave a different impression. Feel free to correct.

about this, how he could give 20 out of 20 to a Beaujolais or house claret or Midi Chardonnary, even though the latter was in no way as good as a 17/20 Montrachet. And in his books he avoids the use of points, he just talks about 'good', 'very fine' etc. From what I can work out, Jancis uses a

This is actually a pretty good biography, and very neutral for something from his own site. However, do we have permission to modify it? The influence of Parker's scores on the wine world is perhaps his most important impact, and it is not discussed at all. I would rather have a small article
993:
Parker's grip on the wine world may be starting to loosen, however. It used to be that only the Burgundians, who make minute quantities of highly coveted wines and therefore have little need to placate the press, had the courage not to kowtow to Parker (indeed, he is now a persona non grata in
1785:
The second issue of The Baltimore/Washington Wine Advocate informs the reader that "Robert Parker has no interest, direct or indirect, financial or any other, in importing, distributing or selling wines" . In the early 90’s, Parker invests with his brother-in-law, Michael Etzel, in an Oregon
1604:
The subheading "2.2 A new tool for the consumer: Parker's 100-point rating system" seems to imply that rating systems only came about with Parker, which is completely untrue. Parker has popularised the 100 point system, but the European 20 point system has been around for a LONG time (I am

discussing Parker and the effect of scores than a large biography that overlooks that point. Also, the ad at the bottom for erobertparker.com (a fine site that I myself visit a few times a week) seems slighly inappropriate, although as a newbie I don't know what the rules are on that.
1536:
about a wine.." then it's obviously controversial and needs exact sourcing. It seems unlikely he would say this too. Just that he tends to give 5-10 secs per wine when doing large tastings isn't particularly necessary to the article since it's so widely practiced.

Since there's no evidence of ongoing discussion, I'm removing the tag for now. If discussion is continuing and I've failed to see it, however, please feel free to restore the template and continue to address the issues. Thanks to everybody working on this one! --

I attended a Burgundy wine tasting recently and the vintner from France was fuming at various points about Robert Parker and I think he said there had been lawsuits. I searched and found this, but would be interested in more info if anybody has it:
1455:
Ok, I changed the sentence and took out the reference to the movie. In the source it is stated, that the BBC correspondent in Paris made the cited ::statement. She is not in the movie - so I don't know how the movie got mixed up with that source.
1565:
Well, this article's been kicking my butt all afternoon, so I'm going to leave it to others to chase down more hard references to his exact claim and phrasing. It sounds like it certainly needs to be flagged for verification, and I've done so.
2172:
Firstly this is a great article; a lot of really good work here. But it is clear to me that most of it has been written/edited by a millennial or someone hostage to their habits of putting, commas EVERYWHERE. Take, for example, this sentence:
1198:
I can't figure out if the number 81 refers to the year 1981, a wine with a rating of 81, or maybe even (though I doubt it) 81 samples of the said wine. Could someone more knowledgeable than myself clarify this and edit the page accordingly?
935:
This article seems to have been placed by Parker's publicists. I was tempted to mark it for deletion on the grounds of self-promotion or advertising, but I suspect that would be harsh. Anybody want to take a look at a more balanced view?
1960:
By the way, for some of the existing references, I was able to add relevant quotations that appear in the References section. I think this helps address any POV issues—it makes it easier to see what the main article is paraphrasing.
1724:
me section 3, critical of him, is gossipy and inappropriate in an encyclopedia article - it reads more like a tabloid or political attack. I am a scientist and used to objective writing and think section 3 should be deleted.mathwonk

vineyard: les "Beaux-Frères". Robert Kacher is in charge of distributing half of the production of the Beaux-Frères vineyard. Of course, Parker does not assess the wines of this property, for "obvious deontological reasons".

1909:
that the article should not pretend to know whether Parker abides by ethical standards or not. Since it is a controversial topic, for now I'm making my suggestion here rather than changing the article directly.
1300:
I added a reference to Emile Peynaud who (according to Agostini and Guichard) seems to have been the one who initiated the change in winemaking that became later to be known as the "Parkerisation of wines".
77: 2268: 1163:
The statement about Parker's affinity for "brettanomyces and volatile acidity" has no basis in fact and is contrary to everything I know about Robery M. Parker. Please cite references or delete.
2303: 1790:
Here it could be mentioned that aside from the regular disclaimer, when this situation arose "Parker informed his Advocate readers and promised never to review any wines produced there."
1593:
feel that the article is too positive and too kind. He is without a doubt the most important wine critic in the world, but he is far more controversial than this article seems to imply.
1149:
Thanks to Bertrand77 for finding a link to justify the statement about "some critics" disagreeing with the 100-point system. I've reworded that sentence based upon the cited reference.
1089:
I agree, the page is too pro Parker, especially the first section which is just lifted from his own website. I may add some more on controversy, as that seems to be the general view?
1601:
The subheading "the first independent and impartial pro-consumer wine critic" has no place in Knowledge as it constitutes a highly controversial statement and one that is unverified.
201: 116: 945:
In fact the article originated as a cut-and-paste job from Parker's web site, see comments below, hence it was as you say rather self-promoting. It is now much better, more NPOV.

Since that's pretty much exactly the contention and you have verified that it just isn't so, it would appear you've unveiled something untrue that should be removed.
2293: 1077:
Is there a reason why the immense amount of controversy over (and in some areas, rage about) Parker's influence on the wine industry is only barely touched upon? --

I altered a similar comment in the source code to reflect that, while the article may have originated with such text, it is no longer solely composed of such text.
