Wine Information:

Bushnell Guild:

The Bushnell Guild was the predecessor of Gamma Chapter at the University of Illinois. Initially called the Congregational Guild it changed to the Bushnell Guild in 1918 and then became Gamma Chapter of Alpha Kappa Lambda in 1921. The principles of Christianity, Scholarship, Citizenship and Fellowship aligned well with the Ideals of Alpha Kappa Lambda. This was the first chapter outside of California. Its iconic house was located on 401 E. Daniel St.

We introduce you to Bushnell Guild. 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.

Strength & Victory:

As supporters of the shield (the crest of Alpha Kappa Lambda), we find on the dexter (left) a spray of California Oak, and on the sinister (right) a spray of California Laurel. These are for Strength and Victory, and represent the fruitage of the Fraternity’s Activities, men who are strong for the right and successful in their chosen fields. The Oak and Laurel can also be found etched in the Alpha and Lambda of Alpha Kappa Lambda’s badge. We celebrate Strength and Victory!

We introduce you to Strength & Victory. 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 follows through to a creamy mid-palate accompanied with highlights of lime and wet minerality and a lingering vibrant finish.
