What reviewers say
“Review #1200 and something bit unusual and special. Blend of Alpine terraced Jacquère 40%, Roussanne 30%, Malvoisie 20%, Mondeuse Blanche 10% from Savoy with 1y in used oak. That colour! Nose of ripe apricot, salty almond, beeswax, brown honey, yellow clay and yeasty brioche.”

Summary
Domaine des Ardoisieres Schiste is a French white from Vins des Allobroges. The blend is Roussanne, Malvasia, Jacquere and Mondeuse Blanche.
Its in-cohort standing is measured against 7,335 other whites from France, not against the corpus as a whole. The calibrated figure is built from 587 reviewers whose rating history varies enough to place their own average. A broader pool of 596 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 Domaine des Ardoisieres Schiste 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 · France (7,336 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 587.
