The Prisoner, Red Blend
Sweet-fruited and soft, which suits a sticky glaze better than a serious Cabernet would. The everyday red.

Sweet-fruited and soft, which suits a sticky glaze better than a dry rub. Not a wine for a delicate plate; it was not built for one.
How it tastes
Blackberry and black cherry jam, mocha, vanilla and a little dried fig.
Full-bodied and dry, plush and round, with soft tannin. Reads sweet.
How to serve it
Plush and ready. Twenty minutes blows off the sweetness on opening.
The everyday red. Now.
Pour it with
- Bone-In Pulled Pork Sweet against vinegar
- Pork Belly Burnt Ends (Jalapeno Jelly & Miso) Sugar with sugar
- Korean Fried Chicken (Double-Fried, Two Glazes) Jam against the glaze

- Drink what you like — Tasting is a skill you need, not a test of money or access. What you drink makes a meal, and it doesn't take a PhD or a large bank account to get it right.
