Questions 3: What is the relationship between the Price and Rating? I wanted to explore if people are more likely to give higher priced wines a higher rating. I expect this because people often associate quality with price. In the plot below, you can see that this is a valid expectation for our data. The highest priced wines all also have a higher rating. Also, it is seen that often the expensive wines with high ratings are Red wines.
Questions 2: What is the relationship between the Price of wine and the Number of Ratings? From the above plot, it is very clear that wines that are very expensive are not rated often. Also, the wines with the highest number of ratings, are often cheap wines. I wonder if there is an upward bias because people are more likely to buy wines that are already rated often, and therefore the number of ratings increase even further. Now I wonder, do people associate a high price with a high quality of wine? Read the next post to find out!
