Could you please explain your scoring system?

Thanks for the review! Have you tasted our Punto Final Reserva or the Enamore?
Yes, I have tasted the Enamore and it is a very good wine http://winesweden.blogspot.com/2008/06/tn-enamore-2006-allegrini-bodegas-y.html
The scoring system is based upon the grade system used in UK Schools in the same way as the USA 100 points system comes from the USA academic system though in this case the 100 points system only seems to be a 50 point system.
I have added a description to the right side of the blog.
