What reviewers say
“93/6/1 CS/Merlot/PV blend. 20 months in French oak. Translucent tawny ruby. Lingering flashes of prunes, leather, and caramel come to mind when the glass comes near. Strong mouthwatering acidity at the onset. A bit plain profile at first, some dry red fruits, but with aeration, more complexity began to show. I have a sense that this wine is still at its infancy and will continue developing complexity over time. Medium+ finish. Cellar door tasting.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
Levantine Hill Cabernet Sauvignon is a red from Yarra Valley, Australia.
119 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 119 reviewers with at least two ratings each feeds the raw-average track. Its in-cohort standing is measured against 516 other reds from Australia, not against the corpus as a whole.
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 Levantine Hill Cabernet Sauvignon 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 · Australia (517 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 119.
