( 8 is the best possible, 64 is the worst)
Here is a measure of the correlation in the preferences of the judges which
ranges between 1.0 (perfect correlation) and 0.0 (no correlation):
W = 0.0863
The probability that random chance could be responsible for this correlation
is rather large, 0.6803. Most analysts would say that unless this
probability is less than 0.1, the judges' preferences are not strongly
related.
We now analyze how each taster's preferences are correlated with the group
preference. A correlation of 1.0 means that the taster's preferences are a
perfect predictor of the group's preferences. A 0.0 means no correlation,
while a -1.0 means that the taster has the reverse ranking of the group.
This is measured by the correlation R.

The wines were preferred by the judges in the following order. When the
preferences of the judges are strong enough to permit meaningful differentiation
among the wines, they are separated by -------------------- and are judged to be
significantly different.
1. ........ 1st place Wine B is Baron de Ley G.R. 2004
2. ........ 2nd place Wine G is Rioja Alta Vina Ardanza G. R. 2001
3. tied for 3rd place Wine A is Marques de Riscal R. 2007
4. tied for 3rd place Wine D is Bodegas Muga Torre Muga 2001
5. ........ 5th place Wine H is Marques de Murrieta G. R. 2005
6. ........ 6th place Wine F is Rioja Alta G. R. 2001
7. ........ 7th place Wine C is Rioja Alta G. R. 1998

8. ........ 8th place Wine E is Marques de Riscal R. 2007
We now test whether the ranksums AS A WHOLE provide a significant ordering.
The Friedman Chi-square value is 4.8333. The probability that this could
happen by chance is 0.6803
We now undertake a more detailed examination of the pair-wise rank correla-
tions that exist between pairs of judges. First, we present a table in which you
can find the correlation for any pair of judges, by finding one of the names in the
left hand margin and the other name on top of a column. A second table arranges
these correlations in descending order and marks which is significantly positive
significantly negative, or not significant. This may allow you to find clusters
of judges whose rankings were particularly similar or particularly dissimilar.
Pairwise Rank Correlations
Correlations must exceed in absolute value 0.74 for significance at the 0.05
level and must exceed 0.64 for significance at the 0.1 level

COMMENT:
Overall, the tasting proves what fantastic quality and valuethese Rioja
w2inbes represent. The group found difficulty separating these wines
from each other, although one did stand out as significantly worse than
the others. Compared to other similar wines of comparable bottle age,
all represent fantastic values. (Price range $35 to $75). All wines are
under 14% alcohol. They are well balanced an made. Overall, we found that
these wines are relatively attractive because of the low alcohol level
combined with aging, which makes them an attractive lternative to
Bordeaux.
