Natalie's Score: 89/100

Unshackled 2021 is produced by the Prisoner Wine Company and is the fourth vintage of this dry, full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignon-driven red blend with some Malbec, Petite Sirah, Petit Verdot, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Tannat added to the mix. Truly unshackled and delish with dark plum, liquid cassis, dark berry, dried wild herbs, chocolate and vanilla flavours lush and smooth on the palate. This is your next go to BBQ wine!

Cabernet Sauvignon food pairings: roast pork, steaks from the grill, roast turkey.

Reviews and Ratings

Produced by the Prisoner Wine Company, Unshackled 2021 is a rich, robust and dark-fruited red wine blend of 82% Cabernet Sauvignon with the balance in Petite Sirah, Petit Verdot, Malbec, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Tannat. A deep, dark and concentrated red made for the BBQ, mouth filling with ripe blackberry, black currant, baking spice, vanilla and mocha flavours. - Community Wine Reviews

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
