PUNCH: Parker & Parkerization of Wine

A somewhat interesting article in Punch by John McCarroll:
https://punchdrink.com/articles/robert-parker-wine-parkerization/
and the legacy of Robert Parker & his (continuing) impact on wine. A fairly balanced & non-judgemental
telling of the story we've all heard before.

Has anybody had any recent contact w/ Parker & curious as to his health status?? He seems to have pretty
much vanished from the wine scene.

Well that's 5 minutes of my life I will never get back.

Well-written article. David may be too jaded to read such material, but the word 'Parkerization' is still frequently used and there are a lot of young people, newly fascinated by wine and of the types who will read and research things, who will need an article like this to explain what they didn't live through at the time. Parker's influence will outlive him.

Maybe blasé is a better term.

No, it most definitely is not.
