Lamborghini (La Fiorita)

Campoleone Umbria Sangiovese Merlot 2001

9.3

Splash decanted; enjoyed over the course of a few hours. The 2001 pours a deep garnet/purple with an opaque core; medium viscosity with moderate staining and loads of fine sediment. On the nose, the wine is vinous with lovely notes of plums, Morello cherry, red and purple flowers, cocoa, a mix of organic and inorganic earth and subtle warm spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long and sanguine. After 25 years, I remain in adoration of the 2001 “Campoleone” and aside from navigating the monumental sediment, this should be a joy well past 2035. — a month ago

Ha! Thanks @Peter van den Besselaar To be honest, I try to write my notes in such a way to be helpful to Sommeliers and wine collectors. But I also have some fun from time to time
