"Wait, that didn't work right" - the Dysfunctional Rules Collection

[Amphetryon]

So what: in general it is quite trivial to taste the difference between, say, pinot noir, merlot, and cabernet sauvignon. That said, because wine taste etc are so very much affected not only by the variety of grapes used, but by the soil, climate, and processing, you can have wines that go well outside the norm of its peers. Those are outliers.

Please note that I make a very definite distinction between that and the pleasure derived from drinking the wine; that is a subjective measure and is certainly dependent on a number of factors not necessarily related to the wine itself.

So you're entirely dismissing the study. Good to know. Back to the topic of the thread, maybe?
