This is wine to pour for those last remaining Francophile snobs who think they will never enjoy a bottle from --GASP --outside of France or surrounding vineyards. I know, there are thankfully not so many of these people left, but the point is, this tastes like a classic, pre-oakification, totally quaffable " let's have this with some rich, wintery food" sort of beverage. If you don't like this, we will have to find something else to talk about.

Hey Merlot snobs.....crack open a bottle of this stuff and get back on board. You're welcome! — 12 years ago
2012 vintage. Big Cali blend. It is what it is. Ridiculous value. Quite comparable to Prisoner but half the price. If you're entertaining a large group of non wine snobs, serve this and people will not stop complimenting. — 10 years ago
Ok, I am on a cheap blend kick. Wine snobs, feel free to judge me. This one "Primal Roots" was solid. There was a distinct cherry finish to it. For a glass of wine in the evening this was very good. — 10 years ago
Oh, I love this wine so much, I call it Denzel. Every single time I talk a client into having this at their event or table -- they love it. It is perfect for compromising different palates when only one wine can be had... Merlot lovers, Pinot snobs, Cabernet aficionados ... They all can get along with this blend. It is wonderful to drink on it's own, but it shines wonderfully with food. Duh, I love this stuff. — 11 years ago
Rodeo Houston with wine snobs, but Rodeo Top Value, Class Champion, Gold — 12 years ago
Excellent! This was placed in our AirBnB by our hosts, self proclaimed wine snobs. Being from near Napa Valley, we were skeptical but pleasantly surprised by this wine! Quite tasty and reasonably priced. Good for a snowy night in. — 10 years ago
If I must drink alone, I'm going to drink well. Wine snobs have more fun. So good, she vexed me out of my words! — 11 years ago

Well everybody wants a big 'ol Napa Cab right? Well too bad Running Dogs of Imperialist Lackeys as Mao would say. Chairman Dana says I like a medium body well structured Sonoma Cab that's reasonably priced and when the Cultural Revolution comes I'll kick back with a bottle of Michael Pozzan's Cab and watch it all go down. Lots of leather and blackberry and enough oak to keep the Napa snobs happy but a smooth finish and very nice secondary notes of spice to keep it from being too heavy. Find this and try a test run Capitalists! — 10 years ago
