Wine Information:
Two Roses:
Our seven exemplary founders came together in 1909 in Brooks Hall at Barnard College looking for friendship, support and a home away from home. This inaugural bottle in our Founders series remembers with fondness our two Roses – Rose Salmowitz Marvin and Rose Gerstein Smolin.
Rose Gerstein was named “Best Natured” by Barnard Who’s Who in 1911. Rose taught Latin and English at the high school level and then switched to teaching accounting. She raised her family in Brooklyn, New York and was active in Brandeis University National Women’s Committee, Hadassah and National Council of Jewish Women.
Rose Salmowitz was described in the Barnard Mortarboard (yearbook) as “the tower of strength which stood four-square to all the winds that blew.” Rose was a teacher and managed the family-owned newspaper. Rose, and her family, lived in Queens and was known for her work for Brandeis University National Women's Committee locally and nationally.
The two Roses were shining examples inspiring all of AEPhi to bloom and grow.
We introduce you to Two Roses. This proprietary red blend – from our award-winning winemaker Todd Heth – exhibits dark blackberry, bing cherry and plum notes perfectly into layers of coffee and tobacco. The finish is dry with long lasting berry fruit. Silky but firm tannins, this wine is enjoyable now but has the ability to age well in the cellar.
Many Hearts:
Many Hearts One Purpose, Alpha Epsilon Phi’s open motto was chosen in AEPhi’s early years because it expressed the best intentions of our beloved founders. Over 100 years ago the sisters knew that the many women of AEPhi could, and would, come together for a mission. Those sentiments resonate as much today as they did back then. Many hearts blend together to make AEPhi a special sisterhood much like the blend of grapes that make our newest wine special.
We introduce you to Many Hearts. This elegant white wine blend is alluring and complex, with a sensuous offering of tropical fruits, white flowers and subtle spice. The nose is like a bouquet of flowers and jumps from the glass with ripe lemon, white peach and orange blossom followed by notes of toast and white pepper. On the tongue, lemon bursts forward with pineapple and other tropical fruit, with undertones of vanilla. The finish is bright and zingy and mellows with vanilla and subtle spices in its length.
