What reviewers say
“Second tasting 24 hours after opening the bottle: complex nose with impressions of blueberry, dark cherry, cacao and violets. Smooth on the palate, well integrated flavors of dark berry fruit, cherry, black plum and developing secundairy flavors. Pleasant and lively acidity. Medium- body with soft tannins. Medium long dry finish. Now rewarded with 3.8⭐, 0.3 up from the first tasting.”

Summary
From Saint-Émilion Grand Cru in France, Château Haut Boutisse Saint-Émilion Grand Cru is a red. It blends Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot.
283 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 295 reviewers with at least two ratings each feeds the raw-average track. The cohort it is ranked inside holds 147 French reds.
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 Haut Boutisse Saint-Émilion Grand Cru 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 · Frankreich (147 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 283.
