What reviewers say
“I really was not expecting anything but an overly acidic, Oaky tannic style… but this is very rustic and simple but very good Rioja. Lots of buts eh? Med ruby color with an off-purple hue. Nose is med plus intensity of cedar, dried rose, berry fruit & brown sugar. Very dry, very balanced acidity and tannins. Palate is dried cherry, wood ash, cured tobacco and dusty crushed rock. A good mix of oak spice in the mix too. High QPR for $11, very nice when you find simple enjoyment in a simple wine!”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
Very bright, deep and clean violet color; blackberry and licorice aromas in the nose; long-lasting, powerful and smooth taste in mouth.
Palacio del Burgo Tinto is a Spanish red made from Tempranillo. The vineyard region is Rioja, Spain.
Its in-cohort standing is measured against 434 other reds from Spain, not against the corpus as a whole. 436 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 439 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 Palacio del Burgo Tinto 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 · Spain (435 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 436.
