What reviewers say
“Underbart vin, som dock var omöjligt att blindprova. Här fanns nämligen inte en antydan till paprika utan grönskan var snarare Rhonskt stjälkig. Frukterna som spelade här var istället liköriga hallon, björnbär och violer. Det fanns antydningar till lite stallighet och buljong.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
From Napa Valley in the United States, Clos du Val Cabernet Sauvignon is a red. At $43.55 for the lowest 750 ml listing, it belongs to the $30–60 band.
The calibrated figure is built from 4,302 reviewers whose rating history varies enough to place their own average. A broader pool of 4,445 reviewers with two or more ratings feeds the raw-average track instead. Its in-cohort standing is measured against 1,155 other reds from the United States, 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 Clos du Val 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 4,302.
