Take a minute to read the 5-star online reviews for Cabalié. This one is typical: "When my time comes to shuffle off this mortal coil, this is the wine I want in that final glass. It is simply, utterly, indescribably fantastic."

The Year of the Dragon Cabalié Cuvée Vieilles Vignes 2022 is made from succulent Grenache and spicy, black fruit Carignan grapes grown in the finest slate soils of Maury in France's Languedoc Roussillon region.

The talent behind this wine is the now legendary Angelo Maci of the multi-award-winning Cantine Due Palme winery. His wines are always splendid, but he has truly excelled himself with this rare, gorgeously deep and richly fruity Susumaniello.

The Waxed Bat is one of Argentina's most original and exciting wines, now with more than a 1,000 5-star reviews. It's a sumptuous blend crafted by the Malbec magician Opi Sadler – a terrific, velvety, black fruit and spice red.

The dense, luscious Waxed Bat Reserve is from remarkable winemaker Opi Sadler. He takes Cabernet and Malbec from the best, highest vineyards and ages the wine in barrel. Waxed Bat's hallmark velvet black fruit, taken a notch richer and deeper.
