This classification 1)Scores are "harmonized", ie transformed in such a way that all tasters have the same average and the same standard deviation.
2) Le coefficient of each taster is computed (Chi-2 based), it measures his "agreement" with the panel of tasters. Tasters may be eliminated if this agreement is too weak.
3) Outliers scores of remaining tasters are whipped out.
4) The final score of a wine is obtained by weighting its scores by the tasters's coefficients.
is neither a eulogy on a particular wine nor an attack against a particular winetaster, but only an attempt to extract a trend from a mass of information (sometimes contradictory) i.e. 9197 scores for 1594 wines (to date).

The coefficient attributed to each taster and appearing at the bottom of the tables is not an assessment of his competence or skill as a taster, but it measures his/her “agreement” with the sample. The higher the figure , the closer the agreement. (these coefficients are all relative, the average being 1, thus a coefficient above 1 means, for each particular taster, a concordance which is better than the average for the sample.)
