2022 Our Lady of Lourdes, Cabernet Sauvignon

2022 Our Lady of Lourdes

A Testament to Faith and Terroir for the Holidays

The 2022 Our Lady of Lourdes is a striking release from Knights Valley, sourced from the esteemed Pelkan Ranch Vineyard—the same site that provides fruit for our Cabernet FRANCis. This expressive vintage delivers depth, elegance, and unmistakable vineyard character, making it a beautiful choice for holiday celebrations and meaningful gatherings shared with family and friends. With its vibrant structure and refined power, it brings a sense of reverence and occasion to every festive table.

Deep ruby in the glass, the 2022 vintage opens with layered aromatics of black currant, ripe plum, and violet. On the palate, concentrated flavors of blackberry, cassis, and dark chocolate unfold, complemented by nuanced notes of tobacco leaf, lavender, and warm spice. Fine-grained tannins and energetic acidity provide structure and lift, while the plush texture and long, polished finish create a luxurious, balanced experience. Beautifully expressive now, this wine will continue to mature gracefully over time.

This Cabernet-based wine pairs effortlessly with holiday cuisine and celebratory dishes. Enjoy it alongside herb-crusted prime rib, braised short ribs, roasted lamb, or savory roasted poultry with traditional accompaniments. Vegetarian pairings shine with wild mushroom risotto, roasted root vegetables, or a sweet potato and Gruyère gratin. For festive entertaining, serve it with a refined cheese board featuring aged Gouda, blue cheese, and fig compote.

Whether poured at a celebratory meal, shared during a candlelit gathering, or enjoyed fireside in quiet reflection, the 2022 Our Lady of Lourdes brings warmth, depth, and elegant expression to every holiday occasion.
