What reviewers say
“Mmm, den är rackarns trevlig. Lagom fylligt och smakrikt, en aning strävt på slutet av smakkavalkaden. Beställningsvara på systemet och bara klickade hem rötjutet till studentfesten, den blir väl fin beslut, och det blev succé hela kvällen. Bara det är ju värt goa betyg.”

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.

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 1,979.
