A very unfortunate dining experience at Reservoir in Silver Lake. Horrible service, spiteful food, gum chewing servers-- the list goes on. But set your eyes beyond the misguided miso black cod and rest them on The Prisoner. 
50% Zinfandel, 24% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14% Syrah, 9% Petite Sirah, 2% Charbono, 1% Grenache
Made by Orin Swift in Napa Valley, The Prisoner is a phenomenal red wine made from a blend of six different grapes, dominated by Zinfandel. It has the rich berry rush of Zinfandel, but with more structure and complexity that can be attributed to the high percentages of Cabernet and Syrah. There are hints of spice, it coats the palate without crushing it, it's fun, it's solid, it's a prancing pony. Also wonderful by Orin Swift is the Papillon.
