Il Caberlot 2019 MG (1,5 L)

Wine Advocate

The Il Carnasciale 2019 Il Caberlot shows good ripeness, concentration and aromatic intensity. Although this wine is normally sold in magnum, I tasted a smaller bottle called Sommelleria. The price you see here is for the magnum. The 2019 vintage offers beautiful weight and roundness of fruit that wraps smoothly over the palate. There is sweet cherry, black fruit, spice and grilled herb. Winemaking starts off in stainless steel, with careful punch-downs lasting from 20 to 30 days, depending on the harvest conditions. It does malolactic fermentation in barrique with stirring of the lees. This vintage shows a pretty acidic signature to close. (ML, 3/2024)
