US wine critic includes some Navarra wines on his latest issue staff
Robert Parker's ratings, an international influence, define modern American wine criticism and are a major factor in setting the process for newly released wines.
Several wines from Navarra have been rated over 90 points in a 100-point rating system by the US wine critic Robert Parker in the lastest issue of the magazine Wine Advocate.
Robert Parker's ratings, an international influence, define modern American wine criticism and are a major factor in setting the process for newly released wines.
The wines rated by Parker include Finca La Cantera 2006 (García Burgos winery), Ochoa Vendimia Seleccionada 2001 and Ochoa Gran Reserva 2000 (Ochoa winery) and Señorío de Andión 2005 (Marco Real winery).
Ochoa Reserva 2001, Lezaun Crianza 2006 and Artazuri tinto 2008 also received good critics by Parker.
The Wine Advocate is still considered to exert a significant influence on wine consumers' buying habits, particularly in America. (Eitb.com)
