150th Anniversary:
Alpha Phi celebrates 150 years of sisterhood in 2022, a milestone moment for our beloved Fraternity and sisters across the globe. This release of 150 draws inspiration from the presence our members pledge to one another.
Whether initiated in 1872 or 2022, Alpha Phis of every generation have celebrated success and leaned on one another in the face of challenge. From widespread threats like war and disease, to localized dangers like disaster and loss, our burdens are more bearable because we stand shoulder to shoulder with our sisters. The presence we commit to each other, and the love that guides our thoughts and actions, nurture the bonds formed in the springtime of our youth. That unwavering support steadies us, shines us light for us and is the spark that inspires us to new heights.
Be inspired by the present. Cheers to the next 150 years.
This premium sparkling wine – meticulously and artfully made in the traditional champagne method – rivals anything found from the best Champagne houses in Épernay and Reims. Blended superbly from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, this magnificent Napa Valley Brut exhibits rich fruit aromatics of strawberry and delicate white cherry that follow through to a creamy mid-palate accompanied with highlights of lime and wet minerality and a lingering vibrant finish.
Lily of the Valley:
Few symbols mean as much to Alpha Phis as the lily of the valley. Delicate and fragrant, the bell-shaped blossom connects us to the feeling of sisterhood and the warmth of friendship. Just like Alpha Phis, lilies of the valley are planted individually before growing closely together, in time joining to create a beautiful garden. Be inspired to grow. Be inspired to bloom.
From the chalky soil of the Carneros region in southern Napa Valley, this gem exhibits lush green apple and bright grapefruit notes while dancing across your palate. This stunning wine is light and friendly with very subtle vanilla and pear blossom hints on the nose. Balanced fruit with tarte acidity make this wine a classic example of Premium Napa Chardonnay.
Pledge Me A Toast:
Decorated with a wreath of ivy, a sign of strength under pressure, which makes everlasting the ties that connect Alpha Phis, the Loving Cup is a pledge of our warm welcome to the newest members of our sisterhood. When Alpha Phi was formed as a secret society to gather women in a spirit of solidarity, support and love, our Founders reaffirmed the respect we owe to one another and to all women who lead with character, give generously, support each other as sisters and boldly create new opportunities. When members partake in the Loving Cup ceremony, we bring to life the lyrics of “Pledge Me a Toast.” Pledge me a toast before we part, forget the parting’s pain. One that shall bind us heart to heart until we meet again. A toast that time can never dim, nor absence make less dear. One that shall sweeter, deeper grow…with every changing year….
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.
