MARATHON MADNESS Starts in More
Prisoner Red Blend California 2022 (Magnum 1.5L)
The one. The only. The PRISONER is here! Best price anywhere on these massive MAGNUMS of hedonistic delight!
Ok… let’s get after it…UNDER $60!!! For MAGNUMS of the 2022 PRISONER RED! In all my years and decades, I’ve never seen a price like this. You can log on to their website and pay seven dollars less for a meager, totally normal-sized bottle. But a MAGNUM?!?! With twice the juice and three times the fun? Prepare yourselves!
This BEAST is THE meteoric wine of the last 50 years, no question…and likely of all time. This is the one that broke all the rules, laid waste to fussy and outdated notions of tradition, what grapes could be blended together, how wine can and should be sold…EVERYTHING. We bought all we could, completely filled a HUGE corner of the warehouse – and watched it dwindle away in record time on Black Friday. Luckily – a truck showed up two days late – and we’ve been sitting on this cache since the first of December!!!
The wait…is…OVER! Good people, for your re-stocking pleasure…I give you…THE PRISONER!!! Over $50 OFF! California’s most classically non-classical blend of zinfandel with the unlikely mix of cabernet sauvignon, petite sirah, syrah, and charbono – this newest Prisoner gives you all that you’ve come to expect, blowing your hair back with notes of black cherries, ripe raspberry, blackberry preserves, mocha, fudge, Tahitian vanilla, toasted coconut, pomegranate molasses, black figs…and…AND! The signature smooth and luscious finish is classic Prisoner, and if you know, you know and are already loading up your cart. This monster of a magnum is the ultimate party wine…and...you're either in or you're out on this one…but you really, really should be IN!!!

“Our brand name and flagship label were inspired by an etching titled Le Petit Prisonnier by 19th century Spanish artist Francisco Goya. Its subtitle translates to “the custody is as barbaric as the crime”. The sketch is part of Goya’s series The Disasters of War, created as a visual protest to the injustice and brutality of the Spanish War of Independence in 1808. From our founding, The Prisoner Wine Company has stood against oppression while embracing creativity. Fighting injustices in our society, especially those tied to our prison and policing systems, is indelibly etched into our identity and a focus of our commitment as an organization. At The Prisoner, we know that the problems in the U.S. prison system are ingrained, nuanced, and seemingly intractable. We also believe that change can happen and that it starts with conversation, collaboration, and creativity.”

About The Producer
“When you outgrow winemaking tradition, you must forge your own path. And we did. The Prisoner exists because of the collaboration with our growers, many of which have been with us since the very beginning—from the Solari Family Vineyard in Calistoga, where old school sensibilities meet new techniques, to the Korte Ranch in St. Helena, a vineyard whose diligence outlasted the Prohibition and has sustained four generations.”
