What reviewers say
“Alla famiglia Santarelli di Casale del Giglio, si deve la rinascita, dal punto di vista vitivinicolo, della provincia di Latina. Molto valido il loro merlot 2013, dai freschi ed ancora vinosi profumi di frutta rossa, e dalle caratteristiche note vegetali.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
A deep ruby-red wine with aromas of small redberried fruits and cherry. Characteristic herbal notes return on a smooth, well-rounded palate.
Casale del Giglio Merlot Lazio is a red from Latium, Italy.
Its in-cohort standing is measured against 152 other reds from Italy, not against the corpus as a whole. The calibrated figure is built from 737 reviewers whose rating history varies enough to place their own average. A broader pool of 760 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 Casale del Giglio Merlot Lazio 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 · Italie (153 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 737.
