Owned by Ferruccio Lamborghini, yes, the same inventor of the sportscar, Lamborghini Umbria Campoleone 2006 is a magnanimous blend of 50% Sangiovese and 50% Merlot. While it won't take you from zero-to-sixty in less than three seconds, it sports a generous nose of black plums, steeped blackberries, leather, anise and flowers. On the palate, there is ample plump, juicy fruit—black cherries and spice and amid layers of ripe tannins, and enough acidity to provide both lift and length. Tasty and easy drinking.

Drinking a 10 year old Umbrian wine with happy thoughts that I make it back to Italy this week. Lovely garnet color, flavor on the meaty side. Ready to drink.

Nice sangiovese / merlot blend. Usually I don’t care for Italian blends that are more modern in style but this is quite nice and still “feels italian”. Dusty tannins and a lot of earth, but great fruit (likely from the merlot).
