The Prisoner is so jammy it feels like sticking your head into a jar of Smucker's. The complexities of the multi-layered blending are almost indistinguishable under the dark shadow of the Zin. If you are unlucky enough to be in a situation where this is the only wine you have to drink, I recommend letting it breath for at least 4 hours. If you have a choice, leave it in the dungeon and let it age for a few more years....
On a more positive note, the 1967 British television show, The Prisoner, is a delight and a useful study in mind control and brainwashing.
