What reviewers say
“Aromas of black cherry and tobacco in the beginning, which later gradually evolved into hints of toasted walnut on the nose. Blackberry, leather, tobacco, oak, and dark chocolate in the mouth. Less of an oak-influenced Cabernet Sauvignon from the region compared to its peers.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
Textbook Mise en place Cabernet Sauvignon is an American red from Oakville. At $75.39 for the lowest 750 ml listing, it belongs to the $60–120 band.
Its in-cohort standing is measured against 1,155 other reds from the United States, not against the corpus as a whole. The calibrated figure is built from 344 reviewers whose rating history varies enough to place their own average. A broader pool of 353 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 Textbook Mise en place Cabernet Sauvignon 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 · United States (1,156 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 344.
