What reviewers say
“Funk by name but thankfully not too funky (for Zweigelt anyway) by nature. As bright and fresh as the label suggests with notes of pomegranate, cranberry, red cherry, violet, lavender, a touch of iron and dried blood on new leather Chelsea boots. As with their Gruner Veltliner this is a very pure expression of an indigenous Austrian varietal at a price which is ordinarily prohibitive to preserving such purity.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
From Niederösterreich in Austria, Funkstille Zweigelt is a red.
The calibrated figure is built from 92 reviewers whose rating history varies enough to place their own average. A broader pool of 93 reviewers with two or more ratings feeds the raw-average track instead. The cohort it is ranked inside holds 78 Austrian 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 Funkstille Zweigelt 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 · Austria (78 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 92.
