What reviewers say
“Ce vin est une vraie bonne surprise, comme une brise fraîche en été ou comme une potatoes dans mes frites McDo. Un bon côté fruité, assez charpenté. Ce vin m’a permis de voyager en Afrique du Sud et de checker Mandela. Assez sec au palais en arrière goût, cela ne gâche en rien ses arômes de cuir tressé ou d’agrumes. Je ne peux que vous le recommander vu le prix dérisoire, aucune excuse pour les économes ou les radins. À faire pâlir le hérisson de votre porte monnaie! South africanement votre!”

Summary
Savanha Pinotage - Shiraz is a red from Breedekloof, South Africa.
294 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 304 reviewers with at least two ratings each feeds the raw-average track. 131 other reds from South Africa form the cohort it is ranked inside.
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 Savanha Pinotage - Shiraz 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 · South Africa (132 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 294.
