In the evening of Friday, September 27th, 1902 our six Founders paraded the Street Fair in Oxford with ribbons of pink and green tied to red, white, and blue canes, as depicted in this drawing straight from Founder, Julia Bishop’s Diary. This custom label is a nod to these six courageous women who were pioneers of their time, boldly paving the way for generations of Delta Zetas to come.

We introduce you to our Founders Red. 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.

Tasting Notes

Crafted primarily from Cabernet Sauvignon with smaller amounts of Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Syrah, and Zinfandel, this 2018 Napa Valley Red Blend is rich and beautifully balanced. Layers of blackberry and ripe cherry are accented by notes of coffee, tobacco, and warm spice. Plush tannins lead to a long, dry finish with lingering berry fruit, making this wine equally enjoyable today or after years of graceful aging.

Pairs well with: Grilled ribeye, Lamb chops, Stuffed mushrooms with sausage, Gruyère, Aged Gouda, Lava cake, Mixed berry tart
