New Prisoner release. Too soft and unstructured for me. Feels like the Corporate guys making a crowd pleaser.

I’m not usually a fan of Cabs. But this one, especially after it opens up 2days later is very good.

Not bad. Fruit forward, but decent acidity and way less wood than the red blend. Says it’s from central coast. I’d buy it again at a discount.
