What reviewers say
“Aanvankelijk valt ie beetje tegen. Betaal je hier nou kleine 50 piek voor? Maar, mag gezegd worden, dit opent zich wat meer naarmate deze wat meer zuurstof krijgt. Wat overblijft is een wijn die vooral straalt in balans, met een hoofdletter B.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
Château Brown Pessac-Léognan is a French red from Pessac-Léognan. At $38.10 for the lowest 750 ml listing, it belongs to the $30–60 band.
1,133 other reds from France form the cohort it is ranked inside. The calibrated figure is built from 1,957 reviewers whose rating history varies enough to place their own average. A broader pool of 2,014 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 Château Brown Pessac-Léognan 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 · France (1,134 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 1,957.
