Why Wine Scores Are Broken and What Chess Can Teach Us About Fixing Them
What has happened to wine scores and ratings? Are they broken? Is the entire project of rating and scoring wine broken? George Nordahl, writing at his Down The Rabbit Hole, does his usual comprehensive and idiosyncratic journey into this topic and comes back with a solution for improving wine ratings if only we look at the world of online chess. Very interesting look at the subject. —DOWN THE RABBIT HOLE, Georbe Nordahl
