ANARKOS

Apr 13, 2015

I first met Gregory Perrucci at the London Wine Trade Fair. He seemed to me how I like to think of myself, laid-back on the surface, but fiercely passionate about wine. He is a 4th generation wine producer and was fed up with the big names in the Italian Wine World planting vast areas of vines and taking them away to blend with and improve their more expensive DOCs (allegedly). Gregory’s desire was to return the wines to their origins. 

 Just over twenty years ago he produced his first vintage of 6000 bottles of Anarkos. Now he’s up to over 250,000 bottles! It seems a very long time ago that we first shipped the 2007 vintage to great critical acclaim;

The Daily Telegraph: "another one of Mark Hughes' brilliant finds. Absolutely delicious blend of Primitivo, Negro Amaro and Malvasia. Lush and plush like velvet, also juicy, scented, intense, rich brimming with the smell of violets, deep purple plums and bitter cherries. Such a joy!

Oz Clarke as one of his 250 best wines of 2012: "an excellent example of how southern Italian reds are starting to express their own fabulous originality. It's bulging with youth and it's soft, yet tempered by a nice edgy bitterness." 

Anarkos is now our best-selling red wine. So, oozing with confidence that joyous reds from the unfashionable south of Italy can sell, we have also shipped from the Estate their full range of different Primitivo Crus. For those of you who already know and love Anarkos, you’ll be sure to enjoy them, too. If you don’t yet know Anarkos….what are you waiting for?
