What reviewers say
“I have yet to try a Crianza from Rioja that I dislike. Great value from Hema at 89RMB some 4 weeks ago or so. Sure it doesn’t have the depth of something higher end, but it has a lovely cherry and oak flavor, with a velvety mouthfeel m.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.

The calibrated figure is built from 758 reviewers whose rating history varies enough to place their own average. A broader pool of 789 reviewers with two or more ratings feeds the raw-average track instead. Its in-cohort standing is measured against 11 other reds from Spain, not against the corpus as a whole.
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 Vina Herminia Rioja Crianza 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 · Spagna (12 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 758.
