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

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 first heard about this wine from another blog and had high hopes this would provide for an interesting tasting. I’ve had several Primitivo in the past, but none of them were as good as most California Zinfandel despite the DNA linkage with Zinfandel and parent Crljenak Kastelanski. I think of ZInfandel and Primitivo as twins separated at birth with each adapting to their terroir and producing similar, but different wines. This wine does not change my opinion on this matter but is a pretty smokin’ value. [...]
