Wine Information:

1852 Reserve:

The year 1852 enriched the lives of hundreds of thousands of Phi Mus and of those yet to join. The founding date of the Philomathean Society, which later became Phi Mu Fraternity, is placed at January 4, 1852. On March 4 of that year, the members announced their new Society to Wesleyan Female College. That date has become when Phi Mu’s Founders’ Day is celebrated.

We introduce you to 1852 Reserve. 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.

Strength:

Two lions grace either side of Phi Mu’s coat of arms, supporting and holding a shield. In addition to strength, lions embody many positive qualities that are relevant to us: family, nobility, courage, protectiveness and leadership. This wine is named for the strength that we find through our sisterhood and within all of our members.

Our Pinot Noir from Santa Barbara County experiences a lengthy and cool growing season that is similar to the climate of the Burgundy region of east-central France. Unlike Burgundy, our Pinot Noir experiences dense fog that rolls in off the Pacific Ocean; this fog contributes to the ideal climate for Pinot Noir, offering just enough moisture to be beneficial without lingering too long.

We introduce you to Strength. This Pinot Noir has aromas of cherries, raspberries, blackberries, and brown sugar with notes of baking spices. On the palate, the wine opens with bright, fruit flavors of strawberries, leading to a round mouthfeel on the mid-palate and soft, velvety tannins on a long, elegant finish.
