Talk:Langton's Classification of Australian Wine

Similar to 1855 Bordeaux classification?
In what way is Langton's classification (which I in no way dispute the encyclopedic relevance of describing) similar to the Bordeaux Wine Official Classification of 1855? Does it enjoy any kind of legal/official status? Was it ordered by Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom or at least the Governor-General of Australia? I understand it as the de facto guide to Australian fine wine, based on auction prices, rather than anything enjoying official status. Tomas e (talk) 00:22, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
 * It is similar since it is based on prices that supposedly shows the quality of the wine and classifies it that way, it is obviously not simmilar since it is much younger, not asked for by a royal, is not legal and so on. I think it was a good addition to the page, to me the legal/offical/royal issues of the bordeaux classification is not very important, it is the way it is classified and tries to give 'status' to wines due to some way of classifying the quality that is the key value of it. Feel free to change/update anyway you wish. --Stefan talk 11:36, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
 * It doesn't matter to you if it's official or not? If that isn't WP:POV I don't know what. In wine classification it matters quite a lot if things are official or not, because that affects what can be displayed on bottles and is enforceable! Tomas e (talk) 18:34, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
 * It was a try to explain what the classification was, the word similar tried to explain that it was NOT the same but ... similar. Both are a classification of wine, therefore similar IMHO. Not so much POV as WP:WEASEL, but never mind. Your update is better, thank you! --Stefan talk 00:22, 12 November 2009 (UTC)
