< Back to Latest News New Jersey vs Judgment of Paris The Winners Are
"I was asked to
be a non-biased third party with the sole responsibility of organizing the
placement of the wines, wrapping each bottle in laminate bags with the
necks taped tightly, open the bottles in a locked room so no one could
see the corks, printing up the wine sheet which was given out after all
the votes where collected, and then collecting all the votes. In other words, I
was the ONLY person who knew which wine was which until all the voting was
done. The pours where all volunteers from the Dionysian Society, International
who were familiar with the Dionysian 20point score sheets everyone was given.
We found a lot of partial score sheets so I decided to view the competition as
two flights. The first being Chardonnay, and the second as Cabernet Sauvignon /
Cabernet Blends and only counted votes in which the person completed that
flight. An example would be if Lisa only judged 3 of the Chardonnays but all of
the reds then I deleted all of her Chardonnay scores but still used her
red scores."
