What reviewers say
“Mi primer Alvariño fue hace 20 años, en Galicia: lo amé, me ha parecido diferenciado y espectacular. Entonces aún se pedía de la añada anterior, aunque ya se descansaba en acero, sobre lías.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
Clean, bright yellow-straw color with greenish glints. On the nose fresh, dominated by stone fruit (peach, apricot) and tropical fruit (pineapple, passion fruit). White flowers (orange blossom) and hints of citric also coming through. On the palate, a delicious varietal character together with subtle mineral and citric notes.
Condes de Albarei Albariño is a Spanish white from Rías Baixas. The grape is Albarino.
Its in-cohort standing is measured against 1,203 other whites from Spain, not against the corpus as a whole. The calibrated figure is built from 1,626 reviewers whose rating history varies enough to place their own average. A broader pool of 1,685 reviewers with two or more ratings feeds the raw-average track instead.
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 Condes de Albarei Albariño 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 White · Spain (1,204 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 1,626.
