Wine Information:

Mary Low Carver:

A wine named in honor of Mary Low Carver is the first release in the First Five Series. These wines honor our five Founders and their desire to pave the way for thousands of women to come. We are grateful that these courageous women decided to make a place for women in the collegiate world. Their efforts inspired the formation of sororities on the basis of scholarship, friendship, mutual interests and ideals.

Mary Caffrey Low Carver was the first woman to attend Colby College, the first name added to the rolls of Sigma Kappa and first to preside at an Initiation. She was a brilliant student who graduated in July 1875 at 25. Mary was always interested in the future of Sigma Kappa. The early chapter members frequently consulted with her on everything from the selection of furniture to the decision to extend Sigma Kappa beyond Colby College. Mary was hard of hearing, but she read lips so quickly few recognized her deafness.

We introduce you to our First Five Series, featuring Mary Low Carver. 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.

Modest Violet:

Wild purple violets were loved by Sigma Kappa from the beginning. These delicate flowers grew wild along the banks for the Messalonskee River where the Founders sat and dreamed of Sigma Kappa. In 1892, the purple violet was adopted as our Sorority flower and in 2008 it was clarified that the official flower was the wild purple violet which the founders had enjoyed during their walks in Maine. The modest violet is referenced in a formal meeting song, “The Sweetest Flower”.

We introduce to you Modest Violet. From the chalky soil of the Carneros region in southern Napa Valley, this gem exhibits lush green apple and bright grapefruit notes while dancing across your palate. This stunning wine is light and friendly with very subtle vanilla and pear blossom hints on the nose. Balanced fruit with tarte acidity makes this wine a classic example of Premium Napa Chardonnay.

Mystic Bond:

Our Mystic Bond Reserve brut sparkling was created to celebrate the best of times with our sisters. The Mystic Bond defines the connection all Sigma Kappa members share. A bond that transcends time, linking our Founders and Sigma Kappas past and present. It’s in this bond that Sigma Kappa members strive for a balance of social, spiritual and intellectual excellence, motivated to become the best versions of ourselves.

We introduce to you Mystic Bond. 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.
