What reviewers say
“4.6 — blown away by fresh olive oil, wrinkled black olives, black cherry, cassis and black cardamom nose. Palate bulldozed by black plum, incredibly well integrated oak, grippy tannins, hints of olive tapenade, long, lingering black pepper finish.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
Apicotado intense red color, very well covered layer, typical of a long-lived wine. Complex aromas, wisely combining ripe fruit and spicy, balsamic and floral (violet). The palate is powerful, well balanced and tasty, silky, soft acidity and plenty of ripe tannins, who step in fleshy and velvety mouth.
Marqués de Griñon Syrah is a Spanish red from Domínio Valdepusa. The grape is Shiraz Syrah.
The cohort it is ranked inside holds 32 Spanish reds. The calibrated figure is built from 734 reviewers whose rating history varies enough to place their own average. A broader pool of 746 reviewers with two or more ratings feeds the raw-average track instead.
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 Marqués de Griñon Syrah 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 · Espanha (32 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 734.
