The Prisoner Wine Company 2021 "Saldo" Shiraz (Syrah) is a bold, full-bodied red wine crafted primarily from fruit sourced across premium, Mediterranean-climate growing regions in South Australia, including Barossa, Clare Valley, and the Limestone Coast. This unconventional varietal bottling is a blend of 95% Shiraz and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon, featuring a 15% ABV and a strikingly dense, dark purple color in the glass.
The wine opens with a highly aromatic nose characterized by layered notes of crushed herbs, subtle brine, and intense dark fruit dominated by blackberry, blueberry, plum, and black currant, finished with a hint of warm vanilla. On the palate, it delivers a rich, mouth-coating, and velvety texture packed with juicy mixed berries, black cherry, cocoa, licorice, and cracked black pepper. Balanced by an opulent acidity and well-integrated, supple tannins, it builds a solid structure that culminates in a long, luxurious finish accented by dark chocolate, espresso, and subtle oak nuances.
