What reviewers say
“At my favorite local wine bar (again!). As a fan of Argentine Cabernet Franc, this was a no-brainer. Aged in 🇫🇷 oak 14-16 months. And it did not disappoint. Deep garnet color. Black cherry and cracked pepper aromas. Much the same on the palate. With added layers of warmed baking spice and green pepper. Tannins add notes of tobacco. They are big, but not overpowering. 14.5% ABV.”

Summary
From Mendoza in Argentina, Doña Paula Altitude Series 1350 Cabernet Franc is a red.
60 Vivino reviewers rate with enough spread for a personal baseline to be measured, and those are the ones the calibrated score reads; a separate, broader pool of 60 reviewers with at least two ratings each feeds the raw-average track. The cohort it is ranked inside holds 482 Argentine reds.
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 Doña Paula Altitude Series 1350 Cabernet Franc 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 · Argentina (482 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 60.
