Tasting profile
A balanced, full-bodied Chardonnay with a fresh, slightly oaked nose and ripe fruit character - reviewers note peach, mandarin, pear, and vanilla, with an acidic entry giving way to a rounder, gently sweet finish. Smooth yet intense on the palate, it drinks beautifully on its own and stands up to bold, peppery dishes.

Summary
Matías Riccitelli Viñedos de Montaña Chardonnay is an Argentine white from Mendoza.
128 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 128 reviewers with at least two ratings each feeds the raw-average track. Its in-cohort standing is measured against 397 other whites from Argentina, 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 Matías Riccitelli Viñedos de Montaña Chardonnay 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 White · Argentina (398 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 128.
