2022 Pierra Cabernet Sauvignon New Release for Members Only

The 2022 Pierra Cabernet Sauvignon opens with striking purity and freshness, immediately announcing its place and pedigree. Sourced entirely from Block 9 of our Leopoldina Vineyard and raised in a single puncheon, it carries an impenetrable focus and clarity that has only grown more assured with time since bottling in 2024.

A core of dark berries and fruit compote unfolds generously across the palate. Silky yet architectural tannins create an I-beam of structure, driving its graceful, enchanting momentum that carries from first sip through the finish. This textural experience is central to this wine, reflecting a true thumbprint of place shaped by Block 9’s impossibly steep, meter-by-meter vine spacing atop the Oakville Bench. This is a wine forged through struggle—as is a familiar narrative for this wine, and one that consistently yields wines of depth, resilience, and serious aging potential.

With that, the 2022 Pierra carries an unmistakable sense of lineage throughout, paying homage to previous vintages of its namesake bottling, while planting the seeds of what is yet to come.

Like a gentle squeeze that lifts you up, there is warmth and familiarity here that grounds with a quietly powerful spirit of expression. 2022 Pierra stands as the most compelling wine of the vintage from our cellar—a testament to the enduring voice of this storied vineyard block and site.
