“Segunda garrafa tomada no Happy Hour. Arienzo, pela Marques de Riscal, 100% Tempranillo, Crianza, 2015. O vinho passa 18 meses em barrica. No aspecto, rubi negro intenso, intransponível, viscoso e untuoso.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
A fresh, fruity wine with a lovely attack, bringing a reminder of red-berried fruit mingling with the coconut and vanilla aromas from the oak. Full and supple with a long finish. A wine with character which showcases the quality of the grapes used to make it.

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 Riscal Arienzo Crianza 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 · España (178 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 6,117.
