Those that create a way for others are looked upon as pathfinders. Those that sacrifice and break from the norm are called innovators. Those that light the way of the long, winding road, we honor. On September 19, 1963, at Morgan State College (now Morgan State University), 12 students founded a predominantly African-American social service fraternity. We pay tribute to these men, the founding fathers of Iota Phi Theta Fraternity, Inc.

We introduce you to IDRYTES Founder Lonnie C. Spruill, Jr. 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.
