Description
Lungarotti 50 Years 1962-2012 Umbria IGT Red 2010 Magnum Special Edition
50 Years 1962-2012 Umbria IGT Red 2010 Magnum Special Edition is a celebratory red signed by Lungarotti, created to pay homage to the history of the winery and its symbolic wine, Rubesco. It is an interpretation in magnum format designed for enthusiasts of large bottles and for those seeking a prestigious, elegant Italian wine meant for important moments.
Territory and wine style
This wine comes from Umbria IGT and interprets the territory with the typical character of Sangiovese, the only grape variety indicated on the label. The 2010 vintage and the long maceration on the skins confirm a stylistic choice oriented towards depth and aromatic definition. Aging in barrique and the subsequent bottling contribute to a more mature, harmonious profile suitable for aging, without losing the territorial identity that distinguishes Lungarotti reds.

On the nose, it can express aromas of ripe red fruit, spices, and light toasted nuances, while on the palate it shows a precise texture, with balanced freshness and a well-integrated tannic component. The finish is described as pleasantly spicy, with a persistence that invites the next sip.
