Pradikat

[andypandy]

While I know very little about wine, I do know some German. "Prädikat," translated, pretty much means a witness of special rating, and can refer to a person, achievement, film, and, commonly, wine. But I also believe that with each "Prädikat" label, there should be an additional signification to tell you exactly what that special rating is. For example, I believe the designations "Spätlese" and "Auslese" are both considered to be Prädikate. I may be wrong in the way this word works in the wine world, so feel free to correct me. Prost!
