Predator Six Spot Red Wine Lodi is a powerful red wine that carries the essence of California. This blend, a combination of different grape varieties, offers a complex and at the same time accessible taste profile. The nose reveals seductive aromas of ripe dark fruit, such as cherries and blackberries, subtly interwoven with spicy notes and a hint of vanilla thanks to the oak maturation. The first sip reveals a full, concentrated taste. The tannins are firm, but velvety soft and envelop the tongue with a pleasant warmth. The taste development is a journey through a palette of ripe fruit, spices and a hint of chocolate, which ends in a long, impressive aftertaste.
The versatility of this Six Spot Red makes it an excellent partner for a wide range of dishes. Its powerful character and fruity notes make it a perfect companion for red meat such as a juicy ribeye or a tender rack of lamb, prepared on the grill or in the oven. The spicy notes harmonize beautifully with game dishes such as venison or wild boar. For those who love pasta, a portion of pappardelle with a wild boar sauce is an absolute must. The Six Spot Red enhances the flavor of the pasta and ensures a tasty and harmonious combination.
Cheese lovers will also get their money's worth with this wine. A piece of blue cheese, such as Roquefort or Gorgonzola, forms a contrasting and surprising combination. The sweet and salty notes of the cheese are beautifully accentuated by the fruity and spicy character of the Six Spot Red.
