Named \"Caberlot,\" the grape has characteristics of both Cabernet and Merlot—hence its name. The Caberlot variety—a naturally occurring crossing of Merlot and Cabernet Franc—is cultivated exclusively at Podere Il Carnasciale. The variety Caberlot was first identified in the late 1960's in an abandoned vineyard near Padua by the agronomist Dr. Remigio Bordini. It was discovered to be a spontaneous crossing of Cabernet Franc and Merlot.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\"The 2019 Il Caberlot (Sommeleria) is a powerful, intensely aromatic red from Il Carnasciale. Layers of flavor and texture build effortlessly, leading into a long, plush finish that is wonderfully inviting, even in the early going. Readers should note that the Sommeleria is not a new wine but the designation the estate has used for their 750ml bottling, mostly intended for restaurants, since 2013. (Drink between 2025-2039)” 97 - Antonio Galloni, Vinous (8\/23)\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\"A classy red, complex and delineated, yet elegant and supple in texture, setting the stage for black currant, blackberry, violet, cedar, rosemary and mineral flavors. Balanced and incisive on the long finish, with a lingering aftertaste that echoes the fruit, mineral and savory notes. Superb. Best from 2025 through 2042. 583 cases made, 100 cases imported.” 97 - Bruce Sanderson, Wine Spectator (8\/23)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Wine Club","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47027997868290,"sku":null,"price":330.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/1419\/7817\/files\/il-caberlot-tuscany-italy-1139161_600x_c14afd58-52e0-4309-bdab-749ee8ac6eae.webp?v=1762985628","url":"https:\/\/thewineclub.com\/products\/2021-il-carnasciale-caberlot-toscana-igt-750ml-copy","provider":"The Wine Club","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
