Joe Canal's Presents Primal Roots Red!


Joe Canal's is excited to announce the arrival of Primal Roots Red!

The true essence of Primal Roots begins with the raw qualities of Merlot, Syrah, and Zinfandel that are artfully blended to create a smooth, full-bodied, sensual wine. The Merlot provides aromas of raspberry, red currants, and mocha along with fine-grained tannins that create a soft, luxurious texture. Merlot is the varietal that keeps this wine grounded. Syrah lends a deep purple color, silky texture, and balanced structure to the wine. Aromas of violets, black currants and a gentle earthiness are accentuated by flavors of dried cherry, dark chocolate, and vanilla spice. Zinfandel is concentrated and rich, yet soft on the palate and loaded with black cherry, clove, and wild blackberry. Known for its spicy characters, the Zinfandel rounds out the wine by adding a touch of warm spice.

In 2010, 90% of the fruit came from the North Valley, which had an incredibly mild growing season, giving the fruit ample time to develop deep, concentrated color, flavor, and aroma. No one expected this to be one of the greatest vintages in recent memory, but as the fruit came off of the vine, it became evident that this was a very special year in terms of quality.

The 2010 Red Blend has aromas of mocha, vanilla, and spice that give way to a silky texture along with rich flavors of raspberries and chocolate that are truly uninhibited.

Regular Price $10.49
