What reviewers say
“(May 2017, Manila). This 2014 Bordeaux has a very dark ruby robe. You get notes of red berries, cherries, and spice on the nose. This is a medium dry, medium-bodied wine. It has a good structure, and well balanced; with some extra acid that makes this wine interesting.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
Fragrant, quite floral bouquet this year with scents of black cherries, incense and a touch of vanilla pod. The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannin, fresh in the mouth with a citrus line of acidity, slightly granular in texture towards the finish that has good structure.
Bad Boy (Mauvais Garçon) Rouge is a red from Bordeaux, France, made from Merlot.
Its in-cohort standing is measured against 1,133 other reds from France, not against the corpus as a whole. The calibrated figure is built from 2,223 reviewers whose rating history varies enough to place their own average. A broader pool of 2,273 reviewers with two or more ratings feeds the raw-average track instead.
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 Bad Boy (Mauvais Garçon) Rouge 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 · France (1,134 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 2,223.
