What reviewers say
“🕰️ 2021 Day 3 of my virgin wine calendar is this scrumptious Australian Shiraz!! 🍷🍷🇦🇺 It is actually made by the winemaker that have a fondness for there small herd of black pigs! Hence the name of 16 black pigs!! 🐷🐗🤣 The actual Shiraz is a beauty which has deep black fruit flavours with hints of oak and pepper. It’s full bodied at 14%. It’s very drinkable and a lovely little warm up before I head out to town for my Christmas football party!! Happy Saturday dear friends! 🍷🍷🍷🍷”

Summary
From South Eastern Australia in Australia, 16 Little Black Pigs Shiraz is a red. It is made from Shiraz Syrah.
Its in-cohort standing is measured against 516 other reds from Australia, not against the corpus as a whole. 476 Vivino reviewers rate with enough spread for a personal baseline to be measured, and those are the ones the calibrated score reads; a separate, broader pool of 503 reviewers with at least two ratings each feeds the raw-average track.
How the score was built
We compare the reviewers of this bottle against every other wine those same people reviewed. Each review is scored relative to the reviewer's own baseline — four stars from someone who hands out fives means something very different from four stars from someone who rarely goes above three. Every reviewer then counts the same, so the result is a calibrated consensus rather than a star average.
- Global percentile
- Where 16 Little Black Pigs Shiraz lands against every wine we rank.
- In-cohort percentile
- The same comparison narrowed to its cohort — wines of the same type from the same country. A Chilean red is judged against Chilean reds, not against Champagne. Ranked against Red · Australia (517 wines).
- AI-adjusted percentile
- The same reviewer-normalized score, corrected for how much confidence the sample supports: thin samples are pulled toward the corpus average. Each wine keeps the share n / (n + 53) of its measured distance from the average, where n is its calibrated-reviewer count, and the result is ranked on the same scale as the global percentile.53 is the median sample size across everything we rank. Here n is 476.
