What reviewers say
“Such a lovely Rosé wine from New Zealand. Perfect for last warm days this year. Though a bit different. I wondered Sauvignon Blanc as Rosé??? But there is apparently Malbec responsible for its nice pink colour.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
Marlborough Sun Sauvignon Rosé is a rosé from Marlborough, New Zealand. The blend is Malbec and Sauvignon Blanc.
The calibrated figure is built from 478 reviewers whose rating history varies enough to place their own average. A broader pool of 505 reviewers with two or more ratings feeds the raw-average track instead. Its in-cohort standing is measured against 111 other rosés from New Zealand, 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 Marlborough Sun Sauvignon Rosé 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 Rosé · New Zealand (112 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 478.
