Anselmet Le Prisonnier

From among the world’s greatest vineyards, “Le Prisonnier” hails from an altitude of nearly 2000 feet above sea level, nestled in between glaciers in the Alps of the Valle d’Aosta region of Italy. It is produced from vines that are over 60 years old, and planted in densities of over 10,000 vines per plant – the most impressive vine age/density combination we have ever seen. Harvested in November at first snowfall, the complexity is otherworldly. The name, which means “the prisoner”, comes from the fact that these grape clones come only from their own little valley. It is a world-class wine.
