What reviewers say
“It tastes good and is pretty, so it's good to give as a gift. I like the colour that looks like Tiffany Blue. It was fresh, so the first taste was good, and it was a wine that went well with seafood dishes and burrata cheese.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
Straw yellow with greenish, bright and clear tones. Medium high intensity with citrus (lemon skin, tangerine) and white flowers (acacia and orange blossom). Tropical background with lychees hints. Very fresh and good acidity. Heaps of fruits, intense and very balanced.
From Rías Baixas in Spain, Paco & Lola No. 12 Albariño is a white. It is made from Albarino.
Its in-cohort standing is measured against 1,203 other whites from Spain, not against the corpus as a whole. 868 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 894 reviewers with at least two ratings each feeds the raw-average track.
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 Paco & Lola No. 12 Albariño 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 · Spain (1,204 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 868.
