Vineyard Notes
Introducing Six Spot Red Wine, an enticing addition to the Predator Wines family. Some farmers believe that finding a ladybug with six spots signals a bountiful harvest. And, since ladybugs consume crop-damaging aphids, even the least superstitious grower welcomes them, six-spotted or not. Six Spot Red Wine is sourced from the renowned Lodi Appellation.
50% Petite Sirah
28% Zinfandel
22% Malbec
Food Pairing Notes
Ladybugs would suggest pairing this Red Wine with fresh aphids or mites – but we recommend short ribs or a delicious Osso Buco.
Production Notes
Lodi, California is ideally situated between the Sierra Foothills and the San Francisco Bay Delta and benefits from cool afternoon and evening breezes, producing world-renowned red varieties. The 2017 harvest developed wines with intense, fruit flavors and well-structured tannins. Our winemaking team blended a selection of Petite Sirah, Zinfandel and Malbec to craft this expressive and balanced red wine.
