Flavour Profile
Opi Sadler is behind many of our most popular Argentinian reds, and for good reason – he is a master winemaker. He learnt his skills from an early age in the dark cellars of his grandfather, whose family had always made wine. Young Opi took a healthy interest, despite being a little spooked by the sleeping bats that always seemed to come to life as he crept down to the cellar with his candle.
He remembers vividly how they'd knock into it and leave wax prints all over his grandfather's cellar, hence the name of this wine – The Waxed Bat. Spicy, liquorice-scented Shiraz, cassis-laden Cabernet and dense Malbec create a wine with bags of appealing ripe fruit.
Smooth enough to drink solo and great with spare ribs or veggie wraps. Open early to let this blend breathe.
