Lamborghini 2003 Campoleone Red (Umbria)
- Editors' Choice
- $50
The best word to describe this impressive Sangiovese-Merlot blend from Umbria is “healthy.” It has a vibrant, ruby red color and delivers absolutely immaculate aromas of succulent cherry, violet, balsamic notes, earth and root beer. It imparts soft, silky tannins, bright acidity and ends only after having carefully caressed each taste bud.
