It’s been a spicy topic for a California wine industry approaching economic panic: the “Wine Improvement District” — or “WID” for those actively at odds in the debate. The idea sounds sensible enough: a small regional levy on direct-to-consumer sales, with the goal of raising funds for collective regional marketing.

Unsurprisingly, economic anxiety is the track of the day. While the wine lake in Europe has prompted major headlines regarding full-on policy intervention, the U.S. hasn’t escaped its share of the gloom. California in particular — representing well over three-quarters of total domestic prod...| VinePair

The Prisoner is one of the most successful red blends on the market in the United States. Originally released in 2000 by winemaker Dave Phinney, the wine consists of a blend of Zinfandel, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petite Sirah, Syrah, and Charbono — and American consumers can’t get enough. The wine almost immediately won over fans of full-bodied reds with its plush palate and intriguing name. And while the wine may have started as a small project, The Prisoner Wine Company is now a part of Cons...| VinePair
