Cabalié Cuvée Vieilles Vignes 3 litre Wine Box 2022
Pays d'Oc IGP
Mighty Cabalié is one of our best-loved ‘BIG reds’ and this old-vine version has even more swagger. Seriously intense Carignan adds inky-dark fruit to soft, spicy Grenache. Super velvety and so handy, too, in this ‘help yourself to a glass’ format.
We're sorry, this wine is sold out.
But don't worry, you'll find plenty more handpicked wines here.

The Wine
Hervé Sabardeil, our winemaker with limitless talent, has been making Cabalié, the big, ripe Catalan red, for over 15 years. He added the old-vine (Vieilles Vignes) edition in 2011, originally as a one off, but it was so popular we insisted he did it again. And again! The magic to this punchy red is really in the vines. At 60 to 100 years old, yields are minute (about half of a Grand Cru claret!). As a rule of thumb, the smaller the yield, the more concentrated the fruit, the more flavoursome the wine! That’s why we call it Cabalié’s Big Brother. Still made in the same style that was beloved by the Roman centurions and now our customers too, it packs even more flavour than the original. Ideal with garlic-roasted lamb, rich stews or cheese.
"Absolute winner. Really smooth, fruity and overall sumptuous wine"

Big Brother to Cabalié with even more richness. In a wine box, equivalent to £7.50 a bottle
