Product notes
From the most recognized Napa Valley red blend comes a distinct wine. Made in the same iconic style as The Prisoner Red Blend, we proudly introduce The Prisoner Chardonnay. Redefining taste once again.

After the primary period of fermentation, the barrels are stirred every other week to erfect the wine’s balance and acidity.

Notes of apricot and yellow peach are accented by toasted marshmallow, dried pineapple, vanilla, and lemon zest. On the palate, lemon zest and peach cobbler are balanced with a bright acidity. Golden delicious apple, marzipan, and toasted coconut linger on the finish.
