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 = 0.3707
Probability that correlation is due to chance = 0.0002
We compute the correlation of each taster with the average ranking of the oth-
ers and with prices. 1.0 => perfect, 0 => none, -1.0 => total disagreement

Comments:
It is amazing that the two significant winners where both Rieslings made by Clemens Busch, a
small organic producer from Puenderich on the Middle Mosel.
Even more amazing is that at two similar tastings many years ago both winner wines at both
tastings were Clemens Busch wines as well (see Report 6 and Report 12).
