What reviewers say
“Dyb rød farve uden det store præg af alder. Meget animalsk duft med læder og tobak men også solbær og vanille fra fadet. I snagen mærker man stadig en del tanniner og mærke bær især solbær. Ikke den mest tilgængelige vin, men det kan være at et par år yderligere vil hjælpe. Bløder i hver fald lidt op efter noget tid i glasset.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
Deep nose, very ripe, passing from the fruit to notes of undergrowth, slightly smoked. In the mouth, the attack is ample, full, well melted, tannins present.
Château Tour Blanche Médoc is a red from Médoc, France, blended from Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot.
The calibrated figure is built from 197 reviewers whose rating history varies enough to place their own average. A broader pool of 215 reviewers with two or more ratings feeds the raw-average track instead. Its in-cohort standing is measured against 53 other reds from France, 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 Château Tour Blanche Médoc 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 · França (54 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 197.
