A related question: So, when do we start to see published retractions of TNs and ratings from Parker, BurgHound, etc.?

Holy shit, take a look at this.
You might not care that much, but this is going to make for some awesome schadenfreude.
Who exactly is this Greenberg motherfucker? I've heard him called a "tech entrepreneur", which means exactly zilch.
Keep reading! It gets worse. Don Cornwell's most recent post has me wondering when Greenberg will join Rudy at Club Fed.

In the aforementioned thread, it was shown that BurgHound had actually gone back to notes and expunged mention of Kurniawan without changing the notes.
Which was awfully lame or silly of him.originally posted by VLM:

And rather than retracting, it would be interesting to see them reflect on which wines might have been real and why they think so. Or at least be less coded about which wines were obvious fakes.

I'd say when frost is forecast in Malebolge. To do so would be to hint at their own culpability in l'Affaires Görke and Huang, and I don't expect that to happen any time soon.

I think you mean when the ice melts, no?

Not only is it lame but it is obfuscatory: if I want to read carefully (to avoid notes that might be false) he has just made it harder to do so.originally posted by SFJoe:

Paul Wasserman has posted a very chagrined apology for his earlier defenses of Rudy.

But it's not as though Moses brought the wines at all the other tastings down from the mountain with the stone tablets. This has been pervasive for a long, long time.

That seems a bit contortionistic for something so specific and egregious.

Or rather, should I say, I can't defend the effort to rewrite history, and it is certainly noteworthy that Rudy was present and brought wine at this tasting or that, but the market for old fancy wine has clearly been highly corrupt for a very long time, and there is no reason to think that the fakes uniquely appeared when Rudy came to dinner. So all these guys have been posting notes on a mix of real and fake wines their entire careers.
