What reviewers say
“Hmm, the Vivino consensus rating is 3.5, but I feel like that might be a tad low. The wine has deep red, strawberry flavors, oak, faint taste of green bell pepper, and very dry (prompting me to pour a glass of ice-cold water afterwards).”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
This Cabernet shows excellent varietal character and structure. Blackcurrant and cassis flavours are complemented by soft tannins and well-integrated oak.
Lindeman's Bin 45 Cabernet Sauvignon is an Australian red from South Eastern Australia. At $10.91 for the lowest 750 ml listing, it belongs to the under $15 band.
The cohort it is ranked inside holds 517 Australian reds. 4,080 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 4,270 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.
- Global percentile
- Where Lindeman's Bin 45 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 4,080.
