We use three criteria when evaluating wines:1) every winery we do business with enhances our reputation as a company; 2) every wine you buy from us exceeds your expectations; and 3) every wine is true to type, has something to say, and says it loud and clear. Using these criteria assures us that we always get wines which meet our mission: to provide you with great wine experiences, save you time and money and make you look good in the process. To quote one of our customers, " I am always pleasantly surprised by Wine Emporium's careful and conscientious selection of wines".

James Suckling
I rate wines using the 100-points scale. I have used this point system for close to 25 years. I still believe it is the simplest way to rate a wine, with its origins from grade school in the United States. A wine that I rate 90 points or more is outstanding (A), and worth buying. If I rate a wine 95 points or more (A+), it is a must buy.
