Renegade comes from Ancient Peaks' estate vineyard on the historic Santa Margarita Ranch and is made by rising star woman winemaker Amanda Wittsrom-Higgins. From missionaries to gunslingers, rough riders to outlaws, a colorful cast of characters has traversed the ranch’s rugged terrain since the 18th century. In that spirit, Ancient Peaks has made an intensely flavored blend that pushes the envelope and resists conformity, adding an adventurous twist to the family of wines. Defiantly bold and daringly elegant—this is Renegade. If you enjoy bold jammy California Cabs and/or blends, try this...
California’s Central Coast is producing some of the state's most exciting, well-priced wines, and offer visitors new experiences. At Ancient Peaks, they open up their beautifully tended Santa Margherita Ranch to guests for zip-lining through the vineyards, wildlife tours, family picnics, lavish dinners and private parties. Armed with one of the brightest rising stars in winemaking, Ancient Peaks has been setting the pace for what has become the budding wine region in Paso Robles. Winemaker Amanda Wittsrom-Higgins was 2020’s cover for Wine Enthusiast’s annual list of "40 Under 40 of America’s Top Tastemakers" and was included as one of "the trailblazers who are redefining the industry as we know it." The quiet revolution she has been leading is beginning to draw attention. The Wine Advocate recently called Amanda’s wines, "keenly priced, high-quality wines that deserve to be better known."
Her Renegade Proprietary Red has been an under-the-radar success here at the Bottle Shop. Folks looking for $20-25 Cabs have been seeking something new and exciting, and this wine is it! A tantalizing blend of Syrah, Malbec, Petit Verdot, Zinfandel and Petite Sirah, Renegade is jam packed with blackberry, anise and pink peppercorn flavors that finish with zesty tannins. Try it with any kind of beef dish, or with pasta, pizza, grilled chicken or cheeses & charcuterie.

Dark in the glass, this blend of 37% Syrah, 24% Malbec, 16% Petit Verdot, 13% Zinfandel and 10% Petite Sirah is intense in aromas of black fruit, loamy soil and wet herbs. It lands on the palate with a hearty mouthfeel, delivering flavors of black currant, roasted meat, black pepper and toasty oak.
