What reviewers say
“Decorrente de uma bem sucedida experiência de colocar a casta sauvignon blanc em terras de vinho verde. Um blend em que o SB (70%) casa bem com o alvarinho (30%) da região do vinho verde, cujo terroir se mostra influente em ambas as castas. Vinho com frescura e boa acidez, quase crocante. Notas de limão e também de fruta branca, maçã e pêra. Final longo e com boa mineralidade. É um vinho bem conseguido e moderno. Quase sem bolha, diria que é mais um branco que um verde”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary

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 Soalheiro Sauvignon Blanc - Alvarinho 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 · Portugal (1,436 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 248.
