What reviewers say
“Martín Ray fue uno de los pioneros de la industria del vino en California y en la década de 1940 comenzó a producir en la zona de Santa Cruz, al sur de San Francisco.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
A wealth of aromas such as fresh cranberries, maraschino cherries, and orange zest. The palate is round and juicy with lively acidity, and a touch of sweet, toasty oak on the finish
From California in the United States, Angeline Pinot Noir is a red. At $13.19 for the lowest 750 ml listing, it belongs to the under $15 band.
The calibrated figure is built from 4,423 reviewers whose rating history varies enough to place their own average. A broader pool of 4,582 reviewers with two or more ratings feeds the raw-average track instead. Its in-cohort standing is measured against 1,155 other reds from the United States, not against the corpus as a whole.
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 Angeline Pinot Noir 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 · United States (1,156 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 4,423.
