What reviewers say
“Intensidad media en aromas y en sabores, muy ligero y de baja densidad, similar a un Pinot Noir, en boca hongos, cereza y frambuesa con ligera terrosidad, en nariz tambien hongos con cafe y ciruela y tabaco, acidez media y potencia media alta, interesante este varietal Monica… y la evolución que vale la pena esperar es aun mejor, denle una hora o mas y no los defraudara el cambio…”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
Pala Oltreluna is an Italian red from Monica di Sardegna. At $20.69 for the lowest 750 ml listing, it belongs to the $15–30 band. The grape is Monica.
Its in-cohort standing is measured against 946 other reds from Italy, not against the corpus as a whole. The calibrated figure is built from 100 reviewers whose rating history varies enough to place their own average. A broader pool of 100 reviewers with two or more ratings feeds the raw-average track instead.
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 Pala Oltreluna 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 · Italy (947 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 100.
