Argentina’s Opi Sadler is a seriously talented winemaker. His awe-struck colleagues even nicknamed him ‘The Magician,’ for his masterful ability to draw the most magical qualities out of his grapes. The Waxed Bat is a sumptuous, full-bodied red wine with layers of dark fruits and rich spices…it’s ideal for opening midweek with a big, juicy cut of steak.
Made in a premium, high-altitude enclave of Mendoza from berry-rich Shiraz, inky-black Malbec and dark-fruited Cabernet, it delivers a deep, dark glassful that Decanter World Wine Awards judges once described it as “so thick you could paint with it.”.
It all starts with enchanting aromas of lush blackberry and notes of violet, smoke, pepper and licorice. Then, on the palate, it delivers layers of rich black-fruit flavor and oaky complexity, eventually coming to a long, smooth finish.
The Waxed Bat is always a huge hit with customers, show judges and critics alike, and always sells fast. Act quickly to secure your share.
