Marc scored this wine: 94/100

This great Spanish full-bodied red was an experience of its own. Thinking it was the expensive bottle I had open I amazed, this wine as an awesome balance and the flavors are easy to distinguish. You can open it and drink it immediately or wait a little bit and experience what a wine of this price range has the potential to cost a lot more. This wine is making it on my go-to wine, I recommend it to my best friend and will experience this again with many different dish.

This amazing ruby/violet colour and plum cherry and smoky aromas wine is great for the money. This a full bodied that didn't stop impressing me, I enjoyed it with a caramelized salmon and greens. It totally worked. I would have paid at least 20$ for the bottle but I was surprised to see the flavour out of this sub 15$ wine.

This is a dry mid-bodied and at first mouth full I thought it was OK but then I had a bite of food and more wine and it truly complimented my meal. For those who want to know I had stewed sausages.

Marc scored this wine: 82/100

This dry mid-bodied Valpolicella 2012 was OK. I wasn't wowed by this bottle although it was still good. I'm a Valpolicella lover, this bottle didn't made it to my top 10. I'm suggesting to keep it in your cellar for couple of years and try it again. I'm scoring this bottle an 82 but hoping that it will improve in the cellar. I'll definitely will give this one another try.
