World's Best 100 Types of Wine: Group C
We are voting for the world's best 100 types of wine in 11 installments; this is the second. Please vote for the best 9 of these 15 wines. For details on this poll, please read the introductory post Vote for the World's 100 Best Types of Wine.
The list is beginning to take shape. See the results for Group A and Group B.
Checking the voting and it's kind of sad: an aged top Vin Jaune from a good year blows away any Marlborough SB ever. Or so my experience has been. But how many voters have had a properly aged Vin Jaune? And so, Marlborough is way above it.
To the people who voted for Limari Chardonnay: The system at Poll Daddy lists anything under 0.5% as 0%. I don't want you to think your vote didn't count. I saw the actual vote totals, and Limari Chardonnay did have some.
Umm, ullp, I think I just failed the voter registration test.
ReplyDeleteSeriously? Tell me what happened.

ReplyDeleteXinomavro in first place and Franciacorta out!!
ReplyDeleteI would have never guessed that...
First place part is immaterial. This is like the Hall of Fame, if you're in, you're in. I'll run the final 100 in alphabetical order.
ReplyDeleteThe fact that Franciacorta can't crack the list just shows how many great types of wine there are in the world.
