What reviewers say
“This is a surprisingly delicious wine that is almost fruit forward but stops and lets other flavors come into play before the fruit takes over. Dark berries, oregano, and dill with a hint of bacon form a complex full-bodied taste that, as you savor it, it develops into the fruit that it started with.. High on tannins medium-low on acidity yeils very good persistence and pleasure as it sits. It went very well with lamb and would do well most big flavors complex flavors.”

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 Cline Rock Carved Cabernet Sauvignon 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 · United States (1,156 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 131.
