Podere IL Carnasciale is renowned for its highly sought-after flagship wine IL Caberlot. The estate is situated high in the mountains in southern Chianti. IL Caberlot is made from a fascinating hybrid unique to the estate, which combines the plush exuberance of Merlot with the fragrance of Cabernet Franc. Production is tiny, with high density planting to limit yields and enhance complexity and concentration.
Alongside the flagship IL Caberlot are two further wines, both of which offer excellent value for money. IL Carnasciale is made from the same unusual hybrid in exactly the same way as IL Caberlot. The only difference comes at the end of the winemaking process when the earlier drinking barrels are selected for this label. Ottantadue, the newest wine at the estate, is a varietal Sangiovese. It is made entirely without oak, resulting in a fresh and approachable style.
