I doubt that the increase in star ratings was accidental as so much attention was paid to accuracy elsewhere; it was probably a conscious decision by Pixar. Most folks in this country think in terms of 5 star ratings, so going with a 3 star rating would probably draw more attention to itself, perhaps confusing some folks into thinking it's a mediocre rating. Note: It's also possible that the wine switch was a subtle in-joke.
