Tasting profile
A beautifully aged dry Riesling, amber-gold in the glass with an expressive nose of pineapple, honey, chalky minerals, petrol, and lime, leading to dried apricot and apple on the palate. Despite 14.5% alcohol, it stays remarkably fresh and elegant, with a complex, stony, lightly astringent finish and grand balance.

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 195.
