Product information "Ladybird Vineyards Ladybird Red (aus organischem Anbau) 2020"

With a deep dark colour in the glass, the Ljubljana Ladybird Red releases intense aromas of wild berries, fragrant cigar box and dark chocolate. From medium to full-bodied, this wonderfully accessible cuvée caresses the palate with an abundance of juicy fruit nuances and wonderfully soft tannins. Of remarkable complexity and depth, the Ladybird Red finishes with a dry, long and soft finish. A generous wine with a stunning price-performance ratio!

The Laibach Ladybird Red (ladybird) is organically grown and produced. Among other things, in Stellenbosch's first organically certified vineyard, about 3000 ladybirds provide natural pest control.

Treatment in the cellar

The grape material for the Ljubljana Ladybird Red was hand-picked and completely destemmed. Without the addition of cultivated yeast cultures, but exclusively with naturally occurring wild yeast, the grapes were fermented spontaneously at warm temperatures in open 4.5 ton tanks. After the fermentation was completed, the wine matured for 12-14 months in small French oak barrels.
