Merchant's description

The 2016 The Prisoner Blindfold White is a bold, full-bodied Californian blend built around Chardonnay, with Roussanne, Viognier, Grenache Blanc, Marsanne and Chenin Blanc. It shows a rich, creamy texture on the palate, with flavours of grilled white peach, apricot, toasted hazelnut, and mandarin, balanced by bright acidity and a mineral edge, finishing long with lemon zest and subtle caramel notes. Sourced from multiple vineyards across Sonoma, Mendocino and Santa Barbara counties, it combines structure with floral and stone-fruit complexity, making it well suited to seafood in creamy sauces, roast chicken, or soft cheeses.
