The Prisoner and Unshackled Wine Tasting
Come try the newest addition to the Prisoner family – Unshackled wines! These wines feature the iconic style of the Prisoner Wine Company at an unbelievable price.
The Snitch Chardonnay $28.99
When creating our wines, we always look for fresh approaches to traditional varietals. For The Snitch, we combined Chardonnay from exceptional vineyards in warm Oak Knoll and cool-climate Carneros with just a touch of Roussanne. The result is bright and rich with an unexpected something special. Fresh tropical fruit, apple, and pear on the nose. The palate offers richness balanced by bright acidity.
Unshackled Rose $23.99
Unshackled Rose is a bright and crisp rose wine featuring citrusy aromas with hints of strawberry and melon. The flavors of grapefruit, tangerine and lemon offer lively acidity and result in a refreshing rosé with a crisp finish. Pinot Noir, syrah, grenache, and mourvedre grapes from the north and central coast combine to create a blush wine that breaks free from convention. Pair this rose wine with roasted beet salad, goat cheese and pistachios or green olive tapenade served with petits toasts.
Unshackled Red Blend $26.99
Unshackled Red Blend opens with aromas of raspberry, blueberry and crushed violets. Flavors of spiced dried cherries, florals and a hint of white pepper translate to a balanced red blend wine supported with a generious mouthfeel. A blend of Zinfandel, Malbec, Petite Sirah, Syrah and Grenache is barrel aged in French and American oak casks for 11 months before bottling. Serve just below room temperature by refrigerating this wine bottle for up to 30 minutes. Pair this red wine blend with BBQ Pork Ribs or a Portobello Mushroom burger.
Unshackled Cabernet Sauvignon $26.99
Unshackled Cabernet Sauvignon, opens with aromas of plum and blackberry with a hint of olive. Vibrant flavors of black stone fruit and dried herbs with solid tannin structure result in a flavor-forward red wine with balanced acidity. A delicious red wine blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Petite Sirah, Syrah and Merlot, this wine combines grapes from the north and central coast of California and is aged in French and American oak casks for 11 months. Pair this flavorful cabernet sauvignon wine with pork meatballs in a tomato sauce or dark chocolate and raspberry layer cake.
The Prisoner Red Blend $54.99
($49.99 for this event)
The Prisoner was inspired by the “mixed blacks” first made by the Italian immigrants who originally settled in Napa Valley. The Prisoner is now the most recognized Napa Valley red blend, leading the resurgence of interesting blends by incorporating Zinfandel with the unlikely mix of Cabernet Sauvignon, Petite Sirah, Syrah, and Charbono. Features enticing aromas of Bing cherry, dark chocolate, clove, and roasted fig. Persistent flavors of ripe raspberry, boysenberry, pomegranate, and vanilla linger harmoniously, for a smooth and luscious finish.
