Tasting profile
A big, polished Shiraz showing dark fruit, blackberry, licorice, and chocolate alongside savory notes of charcoal, bacon, tobacco, and black olive, with mint and eucalyptus lifting the palate. Rich and robust yet smooth and balanced despite its 16% alcohol, finishing long on dried fruit.

“Frugtig en smugle tør men utrolig dejlig vin med nuancer af tobak og mild toner af lakrids, solmodne kirsebær. Den er meget mørk og god fylde”

Summary
From Langhorne Creek in Australia, Noon Reserve Shiraz is a red.

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 Noon Reserve Shiraz 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 · Australia (517 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 362.
