Richard Juhlin uses the 100 point scale to rate champagne, but a few factors must be considered to fully appreciate his reviews:
- The scale starts at 0
- 50 points is an average mark for Non-Vintage (NV) champagne
- NV wines rated below 80 - especially those from the fringes of the region - should not be avoided
- The final score is based on an overall impression of the wine and not a summation of points for different qualities or characteristics
