What reviewers say
“In de neus ‘n kleine zweem paraffine, frisse rinse appeltjes, citrustonen en perzik en zelfs iets tropischer vruchten, wat minerale tonen. In de mond duidelijk ‘n andere stijl dan Moezelriesling, alwaar het spanningsveld tussen zuren en restzoet veel prominenter aanwezig is. Hierdoor komt de bij deze Rheingau de mineraliteit wel goed naar boven, bijna de geur van petrichor, en is deze wat vriendelijker en toegankelijker in stijl. Van deze Prinz weet ik in ieder geval geen kwaad. 3.4*”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
Prinz Riesling Trocken is a German white from Rheingau.
236 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 238 reviewers with at least two ratings each feeds the raw-average track. The cohort it is ranked inside holds 1,789 German whites.
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 Prinz Riesling Trocken 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 · Germany (1,789 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 236.
