What reviewers say
“Velvety mulberry colored red with a p sexy bouquet of blackberry, anise, cocoa butter and earl gray tea on the nose. The palate adds nicely balanced layers pumpernickel bread, coca cola and elderberry fruit notes on top of the ripe red fruit, resulting in a WAY more decadent bottle than you’d expect for <$18. Soft tannins but a nice grip, and tasty almond finish.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.

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 Illuminati Lumeggio di Rosso Montepulciano d'Abruzzo 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 · Italia (235 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 204.
