What reviewers say
“Nice and fresh on the nose, not that overly hot high alcohol thing that can be a turn off. Stone fruit (less ripe peach and apricot, pear), yellow apple, citrus (lemon). A teeny bit of light honey. Not super aromatic. Confirmed on the palate, but the fruit is riper.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
Cockburn's White Heights Fine White Port is a fortified wine from Porto, Portugal, blended from Rabigato, Malvasia Fina, Viosinho and Gouveio.
Only 35 of its Vivino reviewers rate with enough spread for a personal baseline to be measured, so the calibrated figure rests on a thin sample; a broader pool of 35 reviewers with at least two ratings feeds the raw-average track. The cohort it is ranked inside holds 1,422 Portuguese fortified wines.
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 Cockburn's White Heights Fine White Port 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 Fortified · Portugal (1,422 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 35.
