Tasting profile
An elegant, full-bodied Brunello with a layered nose of cherry, elderberry, dark forest fruits, espresso, mocha, dark chocolate, pepper, and floral and leathery hints. The palate is complex and balanced with ripe, fine-grained tannins, a touch of vanilla and oak, and a very long finish.

Summary
From Brunello di Montalcino in Italy, Castello Romitorio Filo di Seta Brunello di Montalcino is a red.
Its in-cohort standing is measured against 946 other reds from Italy, not against the corpus as a whole. 358 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 359 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.

- 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 358.
