We are so excited to present the first offering of our flagship wine – 2019 “Anarchy”
Reserve Merlot.
Red wine lovers rejoice!
After a difficult growing season, 2019 turned out to be a great season for wines, and this Merlot from our home vineyard on Anarchist Mountain was ripened to perfection, made using 50% new oak for 18 months, and bottled unfined and unfiltered to create the boldness that a flagship wine commands. With only 75 cases made, it won’t last long.
2019 Anarchy Reserve Merlot
90.45% Merlot. 9.55% Cab Franc.
After a challenging growing season, this fruit was hand-picked off our home vineyard up Anarchist Mountain in the South Okanagan. This blend is 90.45% and 9.55% Cab Franc. Coming in on the 26th and 27th of October, respectively. Merlot was received and held in cold storage overnight before being whole-berry destemmed. Fermentation took place in stainless steel after a 4x day cold soak which lasted a maximum of 20x days before the fruit being pressed off. The Cab Franc was fermented with 20% whole bunch in stainless steel. the remainder being the whole berry. Only the premium free run was taken from both varietals for this wine which was aged in 50% new French oak and 50% seasoned French oak for 18x months. Blending occurred in November 2020, with bottling following in April 2021.
