From the famous car family who have spent a small fortune creating one of Italys greatest red wines. A 50/50 blend of sangiovese and merlot. This red comes from a close planted, low yielding vineyard in Umbria.A super Tuscan in style combining a classic Italian varietal with a modern twist. A super sexy red with oddles of plummy, gorgeously silky fruit and a long rich finish.This will satisfy those who love good Italian reds and also those who adore the suave nature of great merlot.
"The 2004 Campoleone, the estate’s signature wine, is simply gorgeous. This blend of equal parts Sangiovese and Merlot spent 12 months in French oak. It is a firmly structured wine with superb density on the palate, where layers of tobacco, dark cherries, earthiness, smoke, licorice and toasted oak all come to life.This is a beautifully delineated, focused Campoleone. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2022."92/100 Parker
