Cabernets galore

One of the unexpected findings in this year's Wine Fair so far is the profusion of grapes called Cabernet something. Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon are somewhat familiar and has generally entered the vocabulary of many wine drinkers. I had also tasted a Swiss wine with Cabernet Dorsa last year and I see that a vendor has a varietal wine from this grape. Having visited the Fair for 2 days running, I had discovered another 2 Cabernets, Cabernet Moravia and Cabernet Cubin. Unlike Cabernet Dorsa, which is actually not related to either Cabernet Franc or Sauvignon (which incidentally is Cabernet France crossed with Sauvignon Blanc), these 2 new discoverires are related to the two classic Cabernets. Cabernet Moravia is Cabernet Franc crossed with Zweigelt, whilst Cabernet Cubin is Blaufrankisch crossed with Cabernet Sauvignon.
