Red Table Wine
Redwood Valley
California
Will drink again. (Good every day wine to have on hand and drink now.)
Ladybug Red is a blend of Zinfandel, Carignane, Merlot and Cabernet. The vines are aged an average of forty years. Although it does not say so on the label, this is an organic wine. I have not found any really good organic wines for some reason, but this was a pleasant surprise to learn it was organic and yet tasted so good.
It drinks well on its own and would probably pair well with lighter foods (turkey burgers, chicken, tomato-based light sauces and pizza). Nice berry flavor followed quickly by pepper and then a slight toasted oak fnish.
Besides being a pretty good value, I really like the Lady Bug factor here. Lolonis Vineyards shipped in huge amounts of Lady Bugs and Praying Mantis for use as natural pesticides. Lady Bugs do not like grapes but they do like eating other insects.
She walks along the cliff's edge,
always searching out to sea.
Waiting, watching, longing,
Eyes on the horizon, wishing today for it to be.
Her Victorian dress, long and black,
tattered by the constant tug of the wind.
Her black boots worn to gray, always walking,
waiting for that ship to come in.
Watching to see that mast rise up,
where water and sky form a line.
Longing for the Captain to finally come home,
bringing her faraway treasures and fine wine.
