This captivating blend of Zinfandel, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, and a dash of Charbono, Petite Sirah, and Grenache receives our highest rating ever for The Prisoner. The 2007 vintage sports the intoxicating personality of a big Zin combined with the complexity of a serious Cabernet - just what fans of this wine have come to expect from Napa's #1 most exciting red wine experience at this price! The rich aromas of fresh fruit entice you to dive into this sultry wine loaded with dark blackberry, plums, a plethora of exotic spices and hints of smoky oak and caramel perfectly balanced together for a delightfully big and rich experience at a delightfully easy to swallow price. This 2007 vintage is even smoother in texture and more complex in deep, dark red fruit flavors than the previous vintages. If you liked the Prisoner blend 2006 you will LOVE the new release even more because it's an even bolder and more elegant experience to enjoy tonight or anytime over the next five years. Wow!
