  5. Velvety smooth
  6. Beloved

Bats Blood is grown, produced and bottled in Banat which is part of the ancient historic region of Transylvania. It is bottled on the same estate where it is grown and picked.
The winery enjoys a Mediterranean climate, cooler than the rest of Romania, and dryer with a longer harvest season, allowing many varieties to ripen easily.

Legend has it that the Banat region of Romania was where Bacchus, the God of wine, spent his childhood – certainly the first records of viticulture date back to the Roman Empire when it invaded and annexed the central part of Dacia in 106 AD.

Bats Blood is an award winning Merlot produced and supervised by Hartley Smithers who is one of the worlds most respected wine makers.
Mr. Smithers is from Sydney and he is also the senior wine-maker at Casella who make the world famous Yellowtail brand.
Bats Blood may have a light hearted and sociable personality but as you can see -the quality of the wine is a very serious business indeed.

Love this wine and like the label says no bats are harmed in the process of making this wine.

I don't know why - but I didn't expect it to taste as lovely as it did. The whole experience was fantastic - from the anticipation through to the deep red taste of Transylvania. Bats Blood - definitely not your average bottle of wine!

Apple Shampoo

A surprisingly smooth and rich merlot, very pleasant and not too fruity, care has been taken here and it has produced a very nice wine, with the packaging it made a lovely gift for the other half, she was very impressed as was I!

David Evans

Packed full of ripe fruits with vanilla lingering on the finish. This wine enjoys a velvety smooth mouth feel, making it incredibly moreish. Romanis, Transaylvania
