Bold and fruit-forward, The Prisoner Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir Red Wine is lush and full with dense, dark fruit. The Prisoner Wine Company – crafting wines that are blended for taste and unrestricted by tradition – has created this pinot noir in the same iconic style as their original The Prisoner Red Blend. Made with pinot noir and syrah, this bottle of red wine opens with aromas of black cherry plus hints of pine needle and toasty vanilla. Each sip of this delicious red wine features deep black cherry, blackberry, and toasty vanilla flavors that culminate in a lush, full mouthfeel and a long finish. Barrel aging in French oak barrels brings out the full flavors of this Sonoma Coast red wine, creating a truly exquisite palate in a California wine.

THE LABEL

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.
