Cellar for up to 10 years. Decant 1 hour before serving. From the California tastemaking line Prisoner comes this redefined Cabernet Sauvignon. IT bears the iconic label inspired by Francisco Goya’s sketch Le Petit Prisonier – part of a series meant to visually protest the Spanish War of Independence. The Prisoner Wine Company uses this image to mark its standing “in solidarity with the fight against racism, mass incarceration and the systematic oppression of Black communities.” Staying true to a founding style that sought to incorporate lesser represented varieties from California, this wine features a blend of small portions of Merlot, Syrah, Malbec, Petit Syrah and Charbono. It is aged in a combination of French and American oak barrels of which 50% are new. On the nose is black cherry, ripe plum and vanilla. It’s lush texture carries notes of blackberry and cherry, cocoa and baking spice. This wine may be held for around 10 years, but with round medium tannins and medium acidity it can be enjoyed starting from now.
