Thanksgiving Pairing 12-Bottle Bundle

On a spring morning in 1851, the soft hazy light of a May dawn cast shadows through the shutters. The six o’clock chapel bell had just rung as Eugenia Tucker lighted her bedside candle. She glanced eagerly toward the windows. Yes, the misty pink rays of the sunrise promised that May 15 would be a beautiful day. The Spring Morning Chardonnay reminds us of our roots at Wesleyan, the first college for women.

We introduce you to Spring Morning. This Chardonnay is a real gem. 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.

Dare to Be: 

Dare to be the finest chapters and sisters that you can be. To do less is to deny celebration.” These words spoken by Grand President Virginia Rosenberg Stafford during her 1983 convention keynote remind us to always strive for our very best. To always take intelligent action. To be the first. To be the finest. Our Dare to Be red wine honors the commitment to Alpha Delta Pi shared by all members.

We introduce you to Dare To Be. This 2019 Red Wine is an artful red blend created by winemaker Todd Heth. This wine 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.

The Diamond: 

One of our symbols from the very beginning, the diamond is instantly recognizable to all Alpha Delta Pi members, and it is only fitting that our champenoise is named for the brightest of jewels. Our founding sisters included “We Live For Each Other” on their beautiful gold badges as represented on the label. A modern touch is shown in the background with one of the new diamond-inspired patterns created for our recently updated brand.

We introduce you to The Diamond. 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.

For Each Other: 

Our motto, We Live for Each Other, is known by all who wear the diamond-shaped badge. It is the essence of who we are, a sisterhood of women lifting each other up and supporting each other in all we undertake.

We introduce you to our flagship Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, For Each Other. This is a premium and classic representation of the appellation’s preeminent varietal. Notes of black cherry, blackberry and plum are complemented by hints 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.

The Magic of Sisterhood:
