Critics Ratings
'This reminds me of the stupendous 1997 with fabulous aromas of ripe, dark fruits, spices and milk chocolate. Loads of currants, too, but also a wonderful floral character. It's full-bodied, with super-velvety tannins and a lots of ripe fruits. It goes on for minutes. Needs at least two or three years to soften but try decanting it a couple hours before if you like vibrant fruit. Made from half sangiovese and half merlot.' - James Suckling, 95/100 (Oct 2012)
'The 2010 Campoleone is the best I have tasted thus far. This blended Umbrian red (50-50 Sangiovese and Merlot) opens with an inky black color and extreme elegance that hits at the very core. Shapely fruit tones of blackberry and dried cherry are enhanced by balsam herb, licorice, sweet spice, tobacco, forest floor and flower potpourri. The close is soft, long lasting and ripe. I look forward to revisiting this wine in six or seven years when it has completed its evolution. Drink: 2015-2024.' - Monica Larner, Wine Advocate, 94/100 (Aug 2013)
