What reviewers say
“Argentinian Malbec is quite popular style on Vivino. This wine is no exception, and more than 1000 users have already rated it, and this is quite impressive. However, popularity doesn't always mean greatness and exclusiveness.It may also mean mediocrity.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
Showcases a nose of fresh raspberry and blackberry followed by a juicy palate of dark fruit, blueberry and plum. Full bodied. Ripe acidity, spice and a soft finish.

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 Michel Torino Cuma Organic Malbec 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 · Argentina (482 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 1,727.
