Wine Information:

The Founding Advocate: 

A dedicated teacher, prolific writer, and fearless crusader, Jessie Wallace Hughan fervently championed causes close to her heart. With unwavering passion and leadership, she embodied the essence of philanthropy and left an indelible mark on AOII, enriching it with depth and sincerity. “The Founding Advocate” is the fourth in the series of wine offerings that pay homage to each of our founding members, and the unique and individual impact they left on the Fraternity.

We introduce you to The Founding Advocate. Our flagship Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is a classic representation of the appellation’s preeminent varietal. Notes of black cherry, blackberry and plum are complemented by hits of toasted oak, dried currant and baking spice. Fine-grained tannins and ample brightness on the palate give way to a polished mouthfeel and exceptionally long finish. 

Remember Together: 

“Remember, Re-mem-me-member, AOII, sisters forever;

Laughing, singing, doing whatever, we have fun when we’re together!”

“Remember the songs you’ve sung here, remember when you’re away, remember the friends you’ve made here, and don't forget to come back some day.

Remember the times you’ve had here; the things we used to do. For you belong to AOII, and AOII belongs to you.”

Many of our AOII memories point back to times of song during dinners, recruitment, or gatherings—all collectively encouraging us to Remember. Regardless of which version of “Remember” your memories encapsulate, Remember Together is a sweet reminder that times with our sisters always leave us with a smile.

We introduce you to Remember Together. This Chardonnay is a real gem. Hailing from the cool and foggy climate for the Russian River Valley in Sonoma County, this beautiful medium-bodied wine was grown slowly to build intense flavors over time. This wine was aged in French oak and displays a beautiful balance of fruit, oak and liveliness on the palate and exhibits lush mango and toasted almond. Balanced fruit with tarte acidity makes this wine a classic example of Premium Russian River Chardonnay.
