The Prisoner Red - 750ml

The Prisoner draws its inspiration from the early concept of the “mixed blacks” first created by Italian immigrants who settled in Napa Valley. Today, The Prisoner is the most recognized Napa Valley red blend, leading a renaissance of innovative blends by marrying Zinfandel with an unlikely quartet of varieties: Cabernet Sauvignon, Petite Sirah, Syrah, and Charbono. This bold approach celebrates contrast and balance, delivering a wine that is as expressive as it is accessible, with a distinctive profile that stands out in any cellar or gathering.

On the nose, it entices with ripe Bing cherry, dark chocolate, clove, and roasted fig, inviting you to take a deeper look. In the palate, persistent flavors of ripe raspberry, boysenberry, and pomegranate mingle with warm vanilla, creating a layered, multidimensional character. Tannins are polished, supporting a mouthfeel that remains smooth yet substantial, leading to a lingering, luscious finish that coats the senses without heaviness. The Prisoner is a celebration of blending artistry—bold in its vision, yet refined in execution—designed to pair gracefully with hearty dishes, molten cheeses, and lively conversations. Its bright fruit notes, complemented by spice and subtle oak, make it a versatile choice for both casual dinners and special occasions.
