Wine Information:
Curiosity:
Curiosity, the noblest of traits, for it makes Great Minds voyagers to new worlds yet humbles us with the all-too-human admission that there’s more to know.
A curious meeting:
In 1946, two high-minded British aristocrats, Roland Berrill and Lancelot Lionel Ware established Mensa after a chance meeting. Where did the two Mensa founders meet one year prior?
We introduce you to Curiosity. 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.
Perspicacious:
A perspicacious mind has the keen ability to see through and understand that which is puzzling or hidden .
Much akin to the eagerly insightful Mensan character, the seasoned vintners of this flagship Napa Valley have created a Cabernet Sauvignon intuitive in nature and intense in style — a classically astute representation of the appellation’s preeminent varietal. Expert notes of black cherry, blackberry, and plum are complemented by hints of toasted oak, dried currant, and baking spice. Fine-grained tannins and a rich brightness on the palate give way to a polished mouthfeel and exceptionally long finish. An amply perspicacious take on everything a Cab Sauv should be.
We introduce you to Perspicacious. 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.
Imagination:
Imagination is the marriage of envisioned impossibilities and immovable nonconformity, driven by art, science, or just whimsy. Imagination inspires the journey, propels the search to conceive the inconceivable.
Imagine the possibilities:
Each year, the Mensa Foundation Scholarship Program awards more than $175,000 in assistance to college-bound students around the globe. Which longtime Mensa member and Foundation Trustee proposed the idea of the program?
We introduce you to Imagination. 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.
Gathering:
Fueled by the right elixir, conversation is the star when Great Minds gather. Dance with the possibilities, be it brunch, Hospitality, or a midnight toast.
Come on over:
The founding American Mensa meeting took place on Sept. 30, 1960, at the Brooklyn home of Peter and Ines Sturgeon. How many members attended that first meeting?
We introduce you to Gathering. 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 100% Chardonnay, this magnificent Napa Valley Blanc de Blancs exhibits beautiful green apple and tropical notes in the aroma follow through in the mouth with a smooth fine mousse. This wine finishes with refreshing, lingering light tropical flavors that beg for another sip.
