WineSaint
Elegant florals and red plum show immediate appeal, but the wine lacks the depth and concentration that typically defines Il Caberlot. The vintage's lighter character comes through clearly. Pleasant herb and mint accents can't mask a certain hollowness mid-palate. May develop more presence with time.

→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.
