Wine Information:
Four Petals:
Four Petals merges the significance of our beloved Jacqueminot Rose with our symbolic relationship with the number four. The petals also call out to our Infinity Rose that is an integral piece of our brand identity. The number four represents our beginnings. From the vision of four Founders - all having the desire to continue their lifelong friendships - to our ideals of character, dignity, scholarship and college loyalty, Four Petals subtly incorporates AOII's past and present.
We introduce you to Four Petals. 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.
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.
The Founding Advocate:
A dedicated teacher, prolific writer, and fearless crusader, Jessie Wallace Hughan fervently championed causes close to her heart. With unwavering passion and leadership, she embodied the essence of philanthropy and left an indelible mark on AOII, enriching it with depth and sincerity. “The Founding Advocate” is the fourth in the series of wine offerings that pay homage to each of our founding members, and the unique and individual impact they left on the Fraternity.
We introduce you to The Founding Advocate. 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.
Remember Together:
“Remember, Re-mem-me-member, AOII, sisters forever;
Laughing, singing, doing whatever, we have fun when we’re together!”
“Remember the songs you’ve sung here, remember when you’re away, remember the friends you’ve made here, and don't forget to come back some day.
Remember the times you’ve had here; the things we used to do. For you belong to AOII, and AOII belongs to you.”
Many of our AOII memories point back to times of song during dinners, recruitment, or gatherings—all collectively encouraging us to Remember. Regardless of which version of “Remember” your memories encapsulate, Remember Together is a sweet reminder that times with our sisters always leave us with a smile.
We introduce you to Remember Together. 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.
