Tasting profile
A new-world GSM blend with explosive black fruit, jammy richness, and smoky spice, framed by well-integrated tannins from 22 months in French oak. Smooth and decadent from start to finish, it rewards a good decant and drinks dangerously easy.
Synthesized from 442Vivino reviewers' tasting notes for this bottle.
What reviewers say
“Absolute stunner from the Booker line. GSM blend but certainly new world style with explosive fruit and well integrated tannins from the 22 months its spends in French Oak. Decant the wine for a few hours and get ready for decadence....”

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 Booker Oublie 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 442.
