We now measure the amount of correlation (W) among the judges: W = 1.0 => perfect correlation, W = 0 => no correlation We also provide a probability measure that this correlation is due to chance In this case the correlation is = W = 0.2971 Probability that correlation is due to chance = 0.0020 We compute the correlation of each taster with the average ranking of the oth- ers. 1.0 => perfect correlation, 0 => no correl., -1.0 => total disagreement Name of Person Correlation R Karl 0.7356 Clemens 0.4764 Rita 0.4685 Pit 0.4211 Pascale 0.3398 Ralf 0.3187 Kai 0.3147 Joern 0.0175 Wolfgang -0.1016 Table of Aggregate Wine Quality Wine Ranksum Significance Wine Ranksum Significance Alphabetic Order Ranksum Order A 49.0 C 31.0 SIGNIFICANTLY HIGH QUALITY B 48.0 L 43.0 C 31.0 SIGNIFICANTLY HIGH QUALITY B 48.0 D 56.0 A 49.0 E 69.0 F 51.0 F 51.0 G 55.0 G 55.0 K 56.0 H 67.0 D 56.0 I 98.0 SIGNIFICANTLY LOW QUALITY H 67.0 J 79.0 SIGNIFICANTLY LOW QUALITY E 69.0 K 56.0 J 79.0 SIGNIFICANTLY LOW QUALITY L 43.0 I 98.0 SIGNIFICANTLY LOW QUALITY Friedman Test: Chi-square = 29.4103 Probability = 0.0020 Identification of Wines Votes Against Wine A is Kallfelz, Merler Königslay Terassen, Spaetlese 97 49.

Remarks:
This was a tasting of 1997 dry Moselle Rieslings. The goal of the tasting was to repeat/verify the the tasting of last October. Unfortunately, instead of the Busch Auslese another Busch Spaetlese*** got in the group of wines tasted. This led to the curious result that the Busch Spaetlese was ranked both 1 and 5.
