From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
This rich and bold red wine has dark notes of blackberry and dark plum melded with crème brulee. Aging in Bourbon casks leaves the wine with a long and smooth finish.
Carnivor Bourbon Barrel Aged Cabernet Sauvignon is a red from California, the United States. It sits in the $15–30 band, on a lowest observed 750 ml price of $29.99.
The calibrated figure is built from 736 reviewers whose rating history varies enough to place their own average. A broader pool of 759 reviewers with two or more ratings feeds the raw-average track instead. Its in-cohort standing is measured against 1,155 other reds from the United States, not against the corpus as a whole.
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 Carnivor Bourbon Barrel Aged Cabernet Sauvignon 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 736.
