I just noticed that a Canadian icewine received 100 points from a reviewer at Vinoble. http://www.disfrutarelvino.com/art/rollingdaleIcewinepi...is200620080721en.htm
Does anyone know if a Canadian wine has received 100 points before? |

IIRC Board-O scores all Canadian wine 100pts.

You have to treat Board-O'S Canadian scores the same way as Parker's Aussie shiraz scores.

Canadian Icewine really is awesome.. It seems WS would have granted a 100 pointer by now.

Is it just me or does anyone else smell the delicious aroma of a smoked, chopped, canned pork product? -------------------- "One may dislike carrots, spinach, beetroot, or the skin on hot milk.

It's great over pancakes. No acidity to ruin the marriage. Just one more sip. |

Love this quote from the review. "An Icewine produced in its entirety with the rare variety Pinot Gris" Since when is Pinot Gris rare? This guy must really know his wines.

I read a review of a 100 point Florida wine:
"This delicious wine made from 100% key limes has bold structure, fruity aromas, and a lasting finish. I give it 100 Points!! Drink now or cellar for improvement. 2009-2078." - Charlie Crist, Governor. |

What the guy was probably trying to say is that it's not very common to find an ice wine made from pinot gris. Most of it tends to be riesling or vidal (at least in Ontario). Call me cynical, but anyone else think that Maple is a shill? |

Ah, you skeptics...
Is no one familiar with the 1,000 point scale?? |

Typical response from the ignorance of of an un-developed palate seeking the chior of plebeian praise devalued in any real thought or logic. Smiles everyone! Smiles as he bathes in his elitist agitprop. Forbid the fool who could suggest a 100 point Icewine! "A bottle of wine contains more advice then any self help book in the world" |

Typical response from a syrup drinker. I hear the the 2002 Mrs. Butterworth's is wonderful.
Just one more sip. |

Ok, I get it you hate this stuff. BTW I actually prefer Karo, its a much better representation of that special burnt wood nuance. Especially drizzled on pre-frozen waffles.mmmmm! "A bottle of wine contains more advice then any self help book in the world" |

However, he's most likely correct. The post does smell of SPAM. Joe ----- Wine is like potato chips around me...if it's open, it's gone. |

Well, it`s not the same icewine but it is worth mentioning that:

Don't they know it! The price has skyrocketed in the past few years.  Used to be able to get a bottle for around $26.*********** You never see crazy people walking the streets, screaming about atheism, do you? |

Oh well, classify me as "ignorant" if you wish. I'll simply classify you as an "idiot". -------------------- "One may dislike carrots, spinach, beetroot, or the skin on hot milk. But not wine. It is like hating the air that one breathes, since each is equally indispensable." Marcel Ayme` |
