Campagna Gello, “Il Valore”, Sangiovese, “Marchese de Petri”, IGT, Puglia, Italy 2004 ($3.50) – Medium ruby in color with aromas of strawberry, violet and thyme. A bit lightweight on the palate with earthy strawberry flavors and good acidity for food, finishing with dusty tannins. A nice value in everyday red wine similar to their $6 Toscana I reviewed on Winecast 64. This wine is available at Trader Joe’s Markets across the U.S. Score: 7.5/10

its f****** shit
Well, to each his own, Henry. Sorry you found this one less than acceptable but for less than four bucks, what do you want?!
I’m with you on this one Tim. I was pleasantly surprised by the IL Valore Sangiovese..especially for the price that I got it for. ($3.49) My wine drinking friends guessed it to be between $10-$15 bucks. I guess to each his own!

I’m also with you Tim. I think for under 4 dollars you can’t get a better tasting red wine.
