Derange Red Blend by The Prisoner 2021 / 2022

The dark and silky appearance of the 2022 Dérangé Red Blend is inviting, and the nose, featuring bramble fruit, dark cherry, and graham cracker, suggests a rich and nuanced aromatic experience. 

On the palate, the soft, juicy tannins paired with flavors of vanilla, toasty oak, and black sweet fruit paint a picture of complexity and depth. The hints of cassis and plum skin add layers of richness, while the herbal notes of bay leaf and sage provide a refreshing and sophisticated touch. This combination of elements embodies a wine that’s both approachable and intriguing, with a nice balance of fruit and savory elements.
