What reviewers say
“Bel barbaresco dal colore rosso mattone, conservato da oltre 6 anni in cantina. Bevuto su garmugia lucchese e scaloppine di petto di pollo. Al naso subito ribes e petali di rosa che lasciano poi il passo a note di liquirizia sottobosco e smalto per unghie.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
The name of the wine has changed as in 2007 the production regulation has become more strict and the subzone (in this case "Ovello") must be mentioned on the label. For this wine the vineyard (Vigneto Loreto) is also mentioned on the label, consequently the regulation requires the maximum grape production per hectare to be 10% lower.
Albino Rocca Barbaresco Ovello Vigna Loreto is an Italian red from Barbaresco. The grape is Nebbiolo. It sits in the $60–120 band, on a lowest observed 750 ml price of $68.25.
The calibrated figure is built from 328 reviewers whose rating history varies enough to place their own average. A broader pool of 332 reviewers with two or more ratings feeds the raw-average track instead. 946 other reds from Italy form the cohort it is ranked inside.
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 Albino Rocca Barbaresco Ovello Vigna Loreto 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 · Italy (947 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 328.
