1.0 out of 5 stars Pointless points, 24 Oct 2008
By Jacob Hansen (Denmark) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The 7. edition of Parkers Wine buyer's guide has lost all of it's meaning.
The wines are only rated by points, and there are no tasting notes, no "hedonistic Parker writing" to each wine, which is essential when choosing wines for buying and ageing. You can't see the costs of the wines either, only the pricerange of the winery, which of course doesn't say anything regarding the specific wine.
The wine guide, which used to be a detailed positive list of wines to buy, is now a general description of the wineareas with an ultra short presentation of the winery.

Wine enthusiasts should still buy Robert Parkers Wine Advocate, where the tasting notes are available, but if you already subscribe to Wine Advocate this Wine Guide is money in the drain.
Buy a good bottle of wine instead!

2.0 out of 5 stars a quick read, 13 Oct 2008
Having scanned most of this book I was a bit disappointed in not seeing any specific tasting notes but just numbers and a general background about the winery. Also I would have expected older vintages to be listed, as this is his first book for ages and itb would have been helpful. I will wait in anticipation for any new releases

4.0 out of 5 stars Don't expect the same again....., 28 Dec 2008
By B. G. SMITH (Grimsby, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I feel that reviewers may have been a little unkind as they were expecting a rerun of previous Guides, and this is a little different. There are fewer detailed tasting notes of individual wines it is true, but more 'scores' than before. It is the greatly increased coverage of areas such as Austria, Germany and Portugal that I found fascinating. There are many great bargains (and great wines) to be found there and the detailed coverage of the different wine producing areas and vintage assessments are one of the strengths of the Guide.
