On a related note, I've been asked why I don't have many wines in the C range or below. Many times, if the wine really sucks, I won't blog on it. But if the wine really should have been good but wasn't, I'll try to let my 7 readers know so they won't make the same mistake I did. Also, from experience, I'm pretty good at making educated guesses at what's going to be good or not. (Turning the label around and checking for a top-flight importer is a big headstart.)
Anyway, so long numeric scores. Hello, slightly-fudgier letter grades. (Anything A- or higher I will continue to label as "90 or better.")

Where does an 87/88 fall on this new grading scale? B, B+? It is similar to using that centigrade scale for temperature. The granularity falls by the wayside.
Good question. 87 is probably at the cusp of B/B+, and 88 is a B+. But if I am cutting it that fine, I'm right back to the numbers, I guess. Heck, I don't know what to do at this point. Just read the damn notes.
