Comments = is it reasonable to expect more from a 6 euros wine?
Final Grade = B+
Comments = this wine offers a good expression of a Lambrusco di Sorbara DOC (not to be confused with cheap & industrial Lambrusco). It is very fruity (mainly cherry) with no secondary aromas and a lighter body than Lambrusco Salamino DOC and Lambrusco Grasparossa di Castelvetro DOC. This Lambrusco di Sorbara can be considered a classic example of a traditional Lambrusco (this DOC is the most renowned of the 3)
Final Grade = B+
Comments = this wine offers a very good expression of what a Saten Franciacorta should look like. The Medium+ finish and the lack of tertiary aromas (despite long aging) prevents it from having a better grade (but note than in that case, the price should be around 45 euros)
Final Grade = B+
Comments = we can feel its quality compared to many Prosecco (Cartizze being the best sub-zone), however, the lack of complexity in aromas (mainly green apple with no secondary or tertiary aromas) together with its Medium length of finish prevent a final grade above B (which is still a very good grade for a Prosecco). The most interesting thing regarding this will probably lie in the food pairing, given the large bubbles. It would probably pair better with heavier starter fish than other traditional method wines while also providing more quality than many tank method wines.
Final Grade = B
Comments = this Champagne offers a good value for money if purchased around 17 euros
Final Grade = B
Comments = difficult no to say that this wine is definitely a good buy that provide a very good value for money together with the ability to age for few years
Final Grade = B+
Comments = with an average retail price around 6 euros, it is difficult to argue that this wine is not a very good value for money. The bubble is probably a little too aggressive to enjoy it as a standalone; however, it will pair well with a pronounced mezze and other appetizers. It is a good choice for sharing a moment with friends on a limited budget.
Final Grade = B
