Caberinta

Caberinta is a red grape variety, a hybrid of Hebén and Ruby Cabernet, created in Buenos Aires, Argentina by grower Angel Gargiulo at INTA. It contains genes from both Vitis labrusca and Vitis vinifera. The variety is primarily cultivated in the Mendoza region of Argentina, with small plantings in Morocco. The name 'Caberinta' combines 'Cabernet' and 'INTA', reflecting its origins. It is a high-yielding vine that produces acidic red wines.

Caberinta wines are characterized by high acidity and red fruit flavors, though detailed tasting notes are limited due to its relatively recent introduction.

Caberinta is mainly grown in Mendoza, Argentina, with small plantings in Morocco. As a new variety, it is still expanding, with 38 hectares designated in Argentina as of 2016.
