Introducing the 2017 Our Lady of Fatima, a heartfelt addition to our cherished Marian Series. This release holds special meaning for Tim Busch, honoring the miraculous apparition of Our Lady of Fatima—an event that continues to inspire deep devotion and spiritual reflection.

Tasting Notes
The 2017 vintage reveals a beautifully composed wine, showcasing supple texture and layers of ripe blackberry, dried fig, and a whisper of baking spice. Subtle notes of cedar and warm earth deepen the complexity, while velvety tannins and a smooth, lingering finish bring balance and grace. Each sip reflects a quiet elegance—resonating with the timeless message of faith, peace, and contemplation.

Fall Pairing Suggestion
This reflective and food-friendly red shines with autumn-inspired fare. Pair it with braised pork tenderloin, rosemary-roasted lamb chops, or wild mushroom flatbread to accentuate its depth and spice. For a cozy fall evening, enjoy it with a cheese board of aged Manchego, fig preserves, and toasted nuts. Its elegance also makes it a meaningful companion to an after-dinner conversation by the fire or a harvest gathering steeped in tradition and connection.

Whether poured in celebration or sipped in stillness, the 2017 Our Lady of Fatima invites you to pause, reflect, and savor the spirit of the season.
