Campoleone IGT Umbria Rosso is the company's representative wine. Composed of 50% Sangiovese and 50% Merlot, it is produced in Umbria, in the Lake Trasimeno area.

A small part of the vineyards from which it comes date back to the 1970s, while the almost majority are more recent plantings with a density of 5,500 vines per hectare and a yield per plant that never exceeds 1 kg.

Maceration lasts eighteen days in contact with the skins. After malolactic fermentation, which takes place entirely in barriques, the Sangiovese and Merlot are matured separately for a period of twelve months in French oak barriques.
The wines are blended only before being bottled, where they mature for at least six months. A red wine for long ageing, an elegantly complex wine with a solid structure.
It has a deep ruby red colour, the bouquet is very broad, ranging from notes of cassis and plums, violet, tobacco, leather with a slightly spicy balsamic undertone. The tannins are ripe and enveloping and the finish long and persistent.
It goes well with roasted red meat, game, spicy cheeses and chocolate.
