Campagnolo is still very much state of the art as long as you are looking at their current offerings. If you are asking about the stuff made when your bike was new, then no
I must say that if you want to update your bike don't follow advice about things like "ultra 6" freewheels, they are a dead end. Don't look at trying to find products that are so far out of date that the companies that produced them are no longer in business. You like your bike? The look into having your rear dropout spacing updated to 130 mm. That give you the option to using components that are still being produced. You could then update to 8, 9, 10, or even 11 speed cassettes. If you want indexed shifting you would need indexed shifters and new derailleurs. This depends on how much you like this bike. You can upgrade it so that you will love it even more or do an ersatz upgrade that won't help
