2014 PROPRIETARY RED
If you haven’t tried Anarchist’s Philosopher Red Blend at $30, you really should. It’s a soft, supple style with lush fruit, a silky mouthfeel, and a rare complexity at this price. We offered the 2013 last year, which earned 97 Points, and a Double Gold at the San Francisco International Wine Competition, and the wine quickly made many friends due to its easy-drinking style. The 2014 vintage has more depth and fills your palate with a beautiful medley of fruits and complexity. At under thirty bucks, acquiring a case would be a stroke of wisdom.
There are many theories as to why the Anarchist wines are so darn good. Some might attribute it to the unorthodox blending of Bordeaux and Rhone varietals, and others to the delicious, open-knit style. If you peer more deeply into this wine, you’ll find that it all began at The Wine Foundry, a custom-crush winery making luxury brands, with access to some spectacular fruit sources.
The 2014 Philosopher was built around a core of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon and blended with Syrah, Malbec, Merlot, and Petite Verdot. This insightful blend is from a vintage unanimously recognized for its unrivaled quality, and one that brings blissful opulence and fullness to every single tastebud.
