Tasting profile
A bright, citrus-driven Sancerre showing lemon zest, currant leaf, grass, and stony minerality, with hints of white fruit like gooseberry and elderflower. The palate is round yet fresh, well-balanced, and elegantly dry, with harmonious acidity that drinks gracefully now or with a few years of age.
Synthesized from 54Vivino reviewers' tasting notes for this bottle.
What reviewers say
“Hieno pari parsakeiton kanssa. Lisätty kampasimpukka ja tomaatti parsasalaatti. Mustaherkkaa, sopivan matala ja tasapainoinen hapokkuus ja heldelmäisyys.”

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 Henri Bourgeois Sancerre Le Cotelin 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 · Francia (676 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 54.
