Pointless? | Drop In Class

  • The Oenophile Institute 1295 W Spring St Smyrna, GA, 30080 United States (map)

This class is perfect for skeptics, collectors, and curious drinkers who want to trust their palate — not just the points.

Think all 98-point wines are created equal? Think again. In this revealing class, we’ll pull back the curtain on the world of wine scores — who gives them, how they’re awarded, what they cost (financially and politically), and whether they actually matter to your glass. From palate preferences of top critics to the influence of big brands, we’ll explore how scoring shapes the wine world — and where it falls short.

Then, we put your taste to the test with a blind flight of wines: one rated 97+, couple with ratings, and one with no score at all. Can you tell which is which?
