What reviewers say
“Cor rubi bem marcada, aroma clássico de uvas merlot maduras e framboesas. Na boca tem um início que remete à baunilha e traduz em frutas roxas, principal ameixa e amora. Pouca adstringência com taninos suaves, persistência curta de um vinho jovem e final médio. Harmoniza bem com queijos leves, chocolates e morangos. 5 estrelas, principalmente pelo custo-benefício.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
Color: Attractive intense garnet red. Nose: Heaps of black fruits with hints of blackcurrant and black pepper Palat: Strong mouthfeel with a rich texture and a persistent finish that coats the palate.
Aromo Merlot is a red from Maule Valley, Chile.
The cohort it is ranked inside holds 444 Chilean reds. 474 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 504 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 Aromo Merlot 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 474.
