FEATURES
Il Carnasciale's Il Caberlot 2007 is a truly unique Tuscan red, made from a proprietary grape variety called "Caberlot." This mysterious grape is believed to be a natural crossing of Cabernet Franc and Merlot, and Il Caberlot is the only wine in the world produced from it. Grown organically in Valdarno di Sopra, Tuscany, on a rocky, south-facing bluff, this wine holds a cult-like following.
The 2007 vintage offers fabulous aromas of crushed blueberry, red licorice, lemongrass, and leather. On the palate, it presents an unreal texture of fine, polished tannins that linger for minutes. Expect rich berry fruit, a spicy underbelly, intense crisp fruit, dried herbs, cracked black pepper, grippier tannins, and higher acidity. Other tasting notes include blackcurrant, blackberry, oak, chocolate, coffee, pepper, licorice, spices, leather, earthy, and mineral notes.
🍴 This exceptional red wine is a perfect match for hearty dishes such as beef, lamb, veal, poultry, and cured meats.
🥂 Il Caberlot is a wine built to last, known for its astonishing grace as it evolves in the cellar.

It's an ideal choice for special occasions or for those looking to experience a truly distinctive and age-worthy Tuscan wine. 【The only wine in the world made from the mysterious "Caberlot" grape.】
