1 TexaS Wine Journal Category Report Merlot
2 About Journal RatingS Journal ratings are about building awareness for Texas wines under the objective lens of a panel of professional judges. Through consensus, as opposed to the voice and opinions of a single judge, we can create a more comprehensive guide. Texas Wine Journal ratings are based on tastings by the Journal s panel; of which a five-judge quorum is required. All wines are tasted under single blind conditions and organized based on peer group (meaning that the same types of wines are tasted against each other and the producers names are not known). Price is also not a known factor when the panel meets. Each producer receives notice of his or her wine s rating prior to any rating being published. Raings will be held in confidence if the producer chooses not to allow its publication. The exception to this rule is if a wine rates in the top five of its respective category. The rating will also be included as part of the population of ratings to be analyzed for trends within the category and year-to-date break downs. Only wines scoring 80 points or higher will be published. Wines that are considered flawed or atypical are re-tasted. All wines evaluated and rated are done so on a standardized form based on a 20-point scale. The 20-point score is converted to a 100 point score using the same conversion method that Decanter Magazine uses. In addition, a consumer rating will be provided in the form of Recommended and Highly Recommended wines. January
3 Type Of Data We Track Wine Score (20-points and 100-points) Category Average Single Wine Deviation: A measure of panel consensus for a single wine Average Deviation Across Category: The average deviation between a single wine and the category average - An average calculation across each wine s individual deviation Panel Consensus: Represents how well the panel tastes as a judging body - A deviation calculation of category averages across all judges Typicity Across Category: A Measure of typicity (consistency in style) - A deviation calculation across all averaged wine scores Appellation Tracking: Breakdown of Texas AVAs Vineyard Tracking Merlot 2014 Category Average: 14.75/20 (82 Points) Texas vs. The World: A seperate category that places the top rated Texas wine from a given category in a blind tasting of world wines Year-to-Date Breakdown Average Deviation Across Category: 0.94 Typicity Across Category: 1.15 Panel Consensus: 0.41 January
4 Score Breakdown Extraordinary. Superior character and style Excellent. Noteworthy character and highly recommended Very good. Wine with special qualities and potentially a great value depending on price Good. Solid wine with above average character Average. Straightforward with little distinction beyond being soundly made. Wine Storage Wines are cellared in the bonded and air conditioned space of Vinovium Partners located at 401 Ranch Road 620 North, #C2, Lakeway Texas, January
5 Category Report The Merlot category featured 12 wines (10 producers and 4 single vineyards) that came from grapes sourced from across the state; six (57%) were appellated Texas, two (25%) from the Texas Hill Country and four (18%) from the Texas High Plains. The prices of the wines submitted ranged from $17 to $38 and included the following: 1 from the 2009 vintage, 2 from the 2011 vintage and 9 from 2012 vintage. Producers Featured In The Merlot Category Becker Vineyards Bluff Dale Vineyards Kiepersol Estates Landon Winery Lewis Wines Llano Estacado Lost Oak Winery Messina Hof Winery Spicewood Vineyards William Chris Vineyards The Top 5 Rated WineS 1. William Chris Vineyards, THP, Hunter 2012, 16/20-86 points, $38 2. Becker Vineyards, Texas, Reserve Merlot, 2012, 16/20-86 points, $19 3. Messina Hof, Texas, Reserve Merlot, Double Barrel /20-86 points, $22 4. Kiepersol Estates, Texas, Merlot, /20-86 points, $17 5. Lewis Wines, Texas, Merlot, /20-86 points, $27 January
6 After each category is tasted and rated the scores across the panel are averaged, which allows us to track the consensus across a wide range of palates and thus produces a final rating that is more objective and comprehensive; even when category and panel deviations are considered. To that point, 58% of the wines rated were defined to be Very Good wines by Journal definitions (scoring points), 17% were rated Good wines (scoring points), 25% were Average wines (scoring points) and 0% were Below Average (74 points or less). RatingS Breakdown Extraordinary (95-100) - 0 total Excellent (90-94) - 0 total Very Good (85-89) - 7 total, 71% TX, 29% THP Good (80-84) - 2 total, 50% THC, 50% THP Average (75-79) - 3 total, 33% TX, 33% THC, 33% THP Poor (<75) - 0 total *THC - Texas Hill Country THP - Texas High Plains January
7 Single VineyardS Every 0.25 deviation points on a 20-point scale is equivalent to roughly 1.0 point on a 100-point scale 1. Bingham Family Vineyards acres 2. Granite Hill Vineyard - 25 acres 3. Newsom Vineyards acres 4. Spicewood Estate Vineyard - 32 acres Vintage Breakdown total (8%) - 100% Very Good total (17%) - 100% Very Good total (75%) - 44% Very Good, 22% Good, 33% Average January
8 2014 RatingS Breakdown (across all categories) Extraordinary (95-100) Excellent (90-94) Very Good (85-89) Good (80-84) Average (75-79) Below Average (<75) Wines Rated In Wines Rated To Date 77 Number of Categories Rated This Year 4 9 of Average Panel Consensus To Date 0.55 Producers That Submitted Wines 47 Number of Categories Rated To Date 4 Average Submissions Per Producer 2 Hours Spent Ratings Wines To Date 42 January
9 In ConcluSion The Merlot category averaged out to 82 points The Journal Recommends 9 wines or 75% All of the top 5 wines were appellated Texas, which suggests, as it did in the Red Blends category, that fruit from a combination of Texas AVAs makes a better wine than sourcing fruit from a single AVA. Again, the question is why? Not a single wine scored above 86 points. Why? Is it because of the small population size, an indication of Merlot characteristics in Texas or a combination of both? The population size of the Merlot category is small when compared to the White blends, Red Blends, Caber net and Tempranillo categories. At what point does the population size represent an accurate picture of the category? We observed a nor mal distribution curve in the Cabernet and Red Blend categories for the 2012 vintage that had 15 and 14 total wines respectively. January
