The Prisoner Wine Company, South Australia (Australia) Shiraz 2021

Nov 1, 2022

By Vince Simmon

 The Prisoner Wine Co. brings this exciting Shiraz to you from Australia.  Chrissy Wittman, The Prisoner Wine Company’s director of winemaking, travels back and forth to help produce this juicy Australian powerhouse under Prisoner’s “Saldo" label.  The 90% Shiraz and 10% Cabernet are sourced from Barossa Valley, Clare Valley, and Limestone Coast regions — in keeping with Prisoner’s practice of blending multiple regions.  The wine itself is both jammy and fresh with red, black, and blue notes.  A really nice hint of eucalyptus ties the whole thing together.  If you are a fan of big wines, you should definitely jump at this one if you find it.
