04.Our experts
The average punter agrees
We’ve only printed the experts’ scores but we also had some dessert wine lovers taste some of the wines to see whether they shared their views. On the whole, the ‘lay’ panel liked the experts’ top-scoring wines and disliked those that the experts rated poorly.
The lay panel also gave top scores to some of the wines that divided the experts — Kracher Eiswein Cuvée 2005, Virtu Noble Semillon 2000, De Bortoli Noble One Botrytis Semillon 2006 and Trentham Estate Noble Taminga 2003.
