The original Blindfold white blend helped The Prisoner Wine Company break into the market nearly two decades ago. The original Blindfold blend has been retired — although library options are available if you contact The Prisoner Wine Company through their website — and this delicious Blanc de Noir has taken the reins. 2021 is the inaugural vintage and is predominantly Pinot Noir with Viognier and Gewurztraminer to give the wine some pizzazz. The wine is light and approachable with pear, stone fruit, and floral attributes. Ultimately, this is a good wine and an exciting change to Prisoner’s Blindfold label.
