What reviewers say
“Call me simple, but I love me this Long Little Dog. My wife and I bought a case of it on sale from our local cellar and it far, far exceeded my expectations. I'm not much of a white wine guy, but this one is crisp, clean, and easy to drink. It's got some nice light citrus flavors, maybe a bit of pineapple on top of the usual white suspects. Maybe a bit of green apple, too? Anyways, I can't recommend the Long Little Dog enough. For the price, you can't beat it!”

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 Boutinot The Long Little Dog Blanc 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 · France (7,336 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 250.
