As the big, masculine brother to the popular Prisoner Red blend, the 2016 Cuttings is a larger-than-life Cabernet Sauvignon that always makes an indomitable entrance with a spectacular display of unbridled richness, voluptuous textures and satin layers. Hailing from high-elevation vineyards including Bella Vista, Obsidian Ridge, and the York Creek Vineyard on Spring Mountain, Prisoner Wine Company’s  Cuttings Cabernet Sauvignon is a one-of-a-kind, dramatic, ostentatious effort that oozes with otherworldly intensity.  Bursting with intense mulberries, melted dark chocolate, unsweetened blackberry cobbler, and vanilla bean.  Cuttings makes a powerful statement on what can be achieved at this price point…

 

Cuttings was thoughtfully inspired by steep, hillside vineyards and expert blending, and the 2016 was built around a core of 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, elevated with Petite Sirah, Syrah and Zinfandel.  Modeling extravagance with deep, rich, hedonistic flavors, and just like we’ve come to expect from Cuttings, the 2016 was made in a plump, velvety style with plush tannins that make it impossible to resist diving in for another sip… another glass and then another.
