What reviewers say
“Finally it's garden time! This bottle has been aged a little & also lived through the fire a few years ago at the wine storage facility 🤣 You can see the residue on the label, though luckily I didn't lose any wine. Part of the Hamilton Russell stable. N: aromatic.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
Southern Right Sauvignon Blanc is a white from Walker Bay, South Africa. It sits in the $15–30 band, on a lowest observed 750 ml price of $19.67.
Its in-cohort standing is measured against 871 other whites from South Africa, not against the corpus as a whole. The calibrated figure is built from 1,926 reviewers whose rating history varies enough to place their own average. A broader pool of 1,974 reviewers with two or more ratings feeds the raw-average track instead.
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 Southern Right Sauvignon Blanc 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 · South Africa (872 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 1,926.
