This whole thing reminds me of the time some renowned wine connoisseurs blind taste tested vintage wines and they slipped 2 buck chuck in there. A few of them picked the 2 buck chuck as their favorite. None of them called it out as inferior wine. They all said stuff like "hints of smoke. Berry finish."

I recall reading a similar piece where they gave expert wine judges flights of wines to judge but some glasses would be the same wine from the same bottle and they'd judge it differently.

I'm no pro but have found 2 buck chuck is pretty obvious. If only because it makes me feel ill. Was the test perhaps using midgrade rather than rotgut?

I've heard a "wine expert" spew a load of rubbish like that and when offered it was obviously corked. Tasted like vinegar.
