If your tastes and/or pocketbook run more to lower priced wines, then
erobertparker.com is probably not for you. At $100, it's value lies in
it's database of ratings and tasting notes when searching for wines.
There are indeed some really low priced wines in there - but most are
$30 and way up. I like it because each year I use it to help me find
high QPR Bordeaux for my cellar. The $100 is well spent.
As for Spectator - I still have a problem with their ratings. Too
often I suspect influence based on commercial interest; probably just
paranoia, but it bothers me nevertheless.
You might find that wine forums such as this may be your better bet -
no $, and lots of good info!
