What reviewers say
“I’m so happy today, we bought this bottle few days ago for 14 euros in 50% sale /closing of vinoteque/. So great value for us! Medium golden, shiny colour with silver reflections. Nice small bubbles which make a bigger bubbles foam in outskirt.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
Colour: Intense straw yellow Bouquet: Elegantly rich, generous and multi-layered, with fragrances of peach, apricot and tropical fruit that become gradually more emphatic, then yield to notes of candied citrus fruit Palate: Displays a self-confident vein of tasty acidity and savory flavours, which beautifully complement a full, firm structure. The finish, clean-sculpted and near-endless, completes a wine of rare pleasure
From Franciacorta in Italy, Guido Berlucchi ‘61 Franciacorta Satèn is a sparkling wine. It is made from Chardonnay.
Its in-cohort standing is measured against 1,312 other sparkling wines from Italy, not against the corpus as a whole. 1,485 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 1,513 reviewers with at least two ratings each feeds the raw-average track.
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.

- 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 1,485.
