What reviewers say
“Seis cepas en este bien logrado vino proveniente de Lolol, a mitad de camino entre Santa Cruz y Bucalemu. Es un blend orgánico que mezcla crianza en barricas, cerámica y cubas de acero. El resultado es equilibrado y agradable, untuoso,con personalidad propia, atractiva.”

Summary
Beautiful purple, deep red. nose with flavors of blackberry, tobacco leaf, black cherry, chanterelle nail th and the presence of other spices. Complex and intense. In the mouth, the entry is strong and concentrated, full palate with very soft tannins, but very concentrated.

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 Araucano Clos de Lolol Red 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 · Chile (444 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 937.
