Only thing I can say is that unfortunately I can’t help you. I don’t have ever drank any of them.

If WS love it that much, the only sure thing is that I’ll never be able to afford to drink it. So naturally it is of almost zero interest to me. I mean, it doesn’t even constitute wine porn, does it? :-)

Well... not always...

There’re some wines that many people can enjoy... despite the WS ;) I’m sure that I like wines that even J.Peñín, Wine-Advocate, WS, etc like as well.
For instance, a wine that is always in my To-Do list is Borsao Tres Picos. It’s in the list mentioned and for less than 12 EUR overher maybe worth the try...

Regards,

Jose

WS usually does a decent job of balancing there selections. price is an iportant factor when it comes to this list. I don’t see any cult wines on the list. I think I read the average price of the 100 wines is $42.00 usd..or les tha 30 euros a bottle. so its not that bad.
cheers

... is really nice, and, as Jose says, very good prize ... this is the only one from the list I tried ... well, I tried once the Torre Muga and it did not impress me much, so I never bought it again (this one is on the expensive side, not on the obscene category, but still expesive, so I am not inclined to repeat unless I love it)
