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.

Elegant, it takes 30 minutes decanting to open it, then felt good aroma. Merlo 50 : Sangiovese 50. Where Sangiovese taste has gone? @12000, FLV, 161108

Stewed cherries and ripe plums bit of leather. Good lift and ripe tannins. Hoping for more.

2006 vintage. I guess I'm just a pushover when it comes to Italian wines.

2006. Drinking nicely. I could see this pairing with almost any food.
