What reviewers say
“Second time having this and it is even better, complex with excellent balance with an aftertaste that just lingers forever, classic in style and this bottle is elegant with reserved power; deep mahogany burgundy color, smells of salty duck egg yolk, mimolette cheese, white pepper…”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
Primary red fruit aromas and flavors while young, revealing with an array of secondary characteristics like earth, smoke, violet, truffle and game with age. The varietal is also known, perhaps better than any, for its ability to translate terroir, or a sense of place.
From Gevrey-Chambertin in France, Domaine Taupenot-Merme Gevrey Chambertin is a red. It is made from Pinot Noir. At $146 for the lowest 750 ml listing, it belongs to the $120-and-up band.
613 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 620 reviewers with at least two ratings each feeds the raw-average track. Its in-cohort standing is measured against 53 other reds from France, 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 Domaine Taupenot-Merme Gevrey Chambertin 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 · França (54 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 613.
