Deep presence of herbs, red berries, chocolate, and oak sensations of vanilla and toffee. A serious wine known to few and Italian appreciated by wine collectors.
The Caberlot grape is believed to be a natural crossing between Cabernet Franc and Merlot.
18 months french barrel ageing / barrel selection / 16 months magnum ageing.
Only produced in large format bottles (magnums and double magnums), the 2012 Il Caberlot is an abundantly fragrant and intense red wine with a beautiful sense of balance and integrity. The name of the grape clone used is Caberlot and Il Carnasciale has built its cult reputation on the fact that only they seem to grow it. The wine offers an inky and impenetrable appearance with an impressive sense of depth and purity. The bouquet is perhaps more reminiscent of Cabernet with dark fruit, spice, moist earth and violets. You get a delicate touch of freshly milled white pepper as well. Some 3,450 magnums were produced and only 120 double magnums were made. This wine can be very challenging to locate. Anticipated Maturity: 2017-2030
