The Prisoner Wine Co, Saldo NV 囚犯酒莊 隆爾多頂級金芬黛紅酒

THE PRISONER WINE COMPANY
The Prisoner Wine's winemaking team works with a family of growers to source a diverse variety of grapes from premier vineyards throughout California. The resulting wines are interesting blends of distinct quality and character.

ABOUT THE WINE
While sampling grapes from fine-quality vineyards to make The Prisoner, they came across many that, although not right for that distinctive Napa Valley blend, were just too good to let go. They created Saldo to feature this outstanding fruit from Dry Creek, Lodi, and Amador, where Zinfandel has thrived for decades.

WINEMAKER NOTES
Dark ruby color with bold aromas of black licorice, black pepper, cherry, and baking spice. The entry is rich, full, and scintillating. The palate is mouthwatering and smooth with a hint of chocolate. The finish is voluptuous with soft, velvety tannins.

THE BLEND
85% Zinfandel, 15% Blend of Petite Sirah and Syrah

AGING
A combination of French and American oak barrels, 25% new

美國膜拜酒莊 囚犯酒莊 旗艦酒款

Dave Phinney於1998年創立 Orin Swift酒莊，
身為加利福尼亞洲最具影響力和創新意識的釀酒師之一。

從2000年他釀造出以Zinfandel為基礎的The Prisoner 囚犯系列紅葡萄酒開始，酒莊的紅葡萄酒混釀就以美味而實惠的特性和極具辨識性的酒標而不斷激起愛酒人士的喜好

The Prisoner沒有自己的葡萄園，到處買優質小農的葡萄來混調，隨著知名度上升，產量也逐年提升。它在2010年為名莊Quintessa看上，那時它已是年產8萬5000箱的中型酒莊,在Quintess的加持下，酒款愈來愈多，產量更達17萬箱，但不變的是奇特的混調方式：像酒莊目前的白酒(Blindfold),用上夏多内、胡姍、維歐尼耶、白梢楠、密思嘉、弗門提諾,從布根地、隆河、羅亞爾河到義大利各品種全部集合在一起，品飲者可說有著極其獨特的經驗，而且市場看來相當買帳，於是這間酒莊又被葡萄酒界巨人Constellation看上，2016年成了集團的一分子。
