Plush and concentrated, with layers of cassis and blackberry flowing into leather, espresso and Mediterranean herbs. The structure impresses. Firm tannins provide backbone without overwhelming the generous fruit core. Built with both power and elegance from this benchmark Tuscan producer.

Podere Il Carnasciale

Podere Il Carnasciale is the tiny Tuscan estate behind Caberlot, a grape found nowhere else on earth, a natural crossing of Cabernet Franc and Merlot grown on a single hillside in the Valdarno di Sopra.
