What reviewers say
“Unglaublich! Plötzlich sitze ich in einem kleinen mediterranen Bistro in Italien. Es ist heiss. Ein kühler Windhauch streift durch das Haar und vermag es diese Hitze eine wenig zu mindern. Auf der Zunge weist der Wein Noten von Zitrusfrüchten wie Bergamotte und Grapefruit auf.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
Barone Montalto Collezione di Famiglia Grillo is an Italian white from Sicilia.
Its in-cohort standing is measured against 1,879 other whites from Italy, not against the corpus as a whole. 251 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 269 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 Barone Montalto Collezione di Famiglia Grillo 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 White · Italia (1,880 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 251.
