What reviewers say
“Bra sak! God rød, merkbar eikete i aroma. Dog ikke utpreget. Distinkt fruktig med tydelige hints av bær og pepper. God balanse, fin og elegant i smak, med behagelig ettersmak. Kjøtt. Kalv. Nice! Oaky, but Extraordinary value. A pure, fruit-driven style that reminds of raspberry pastilles, cranberries and pepper. The palate is seamless, fine, elegant and lingering, with skilfully integrated fruit tannins. Perfect with veal.”
From a top-rated Vivino review for this bottle.
Summary
Selected batches of fruit from premium South Australian Shiraz vineyards come together to create a wine displaying attractive berry and spice characters that marry well with subtle integrated oak. A well structured Shiraz with good length of flavour.
Wolf Blass Yellow Label Shiraz is an Australian red made from Shiraz Syrah. It is bottled in South Australia.
516 other reds from Australia form the cohort it is ranked inside. 898 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 928 reviewers with at least two ratings each feeds the raw-average track.
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 Wolf Blass Yellow Label 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 · Australia (517 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 898.
