No wine collector can ignore the market impact of Robert Parker’s reviews and scores.
My last post was about a recent Bloomberg article written by Elin McCoy but she is better known to me for authoring the best-selling
The Emperor of Wine: The Rise of Robert Parker, Jr., and the Reign of American Taste.
While her book was first published in mid-2005 and in paperback in mid-2006, it will remain a classic as it delivers rare personal insights into Robert Parker and his abilities. Personally, even though I’ve never met him, I felt like I had a personal connection after reading the book and a greater admiration for what he’s achieved.
Bottom line: It’s an entertaining “must read” for any wine collector or enthusiast if you’re looking for a good last minute holiday gift item.
