Stags' Leap District • 2022 Vintage
The Wine
This blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Cabernet Franc, and Malbec was sourced exclusively from Stags Leap District and harvested at peak ripeness, showcasing fine tannins that add texture to blue fruit, spice and herbal notes. After 18 days of skin fermentation, the wine is aged for 18 months in a mix of new and neutral French oak barrels, resulting in a voluminous blend rich in blueberry and savory herbs.
The Label
The first work of art by a formerly incarcerated artist to be acquired by The Metropolitan Museum of Art. Using limited materials—soap, hair gel, and improvised tools—Purgatory exemplifies the ingenuity of artists within the system. Krimes safeguarded the printed soaps within playing card containers, smuggling them through the prison mailing system over the course of a year. This creative process served as a mental escape from the dehumanizing environment of prison while fostering unexpected connections with those around him. It represents art-making as both an act of resistance and a means of community building.
The Series
In 2022, we introduced Corrections, an annual limited-edition release that merges art and wine to reshape cultural narratives surrounding those impacted by our justice system. Each label is created in partnership with an artist who has personally experienced incarceration, transforming every bottle into a powerful act of storytelling.
