Wine Information:
One Iota:
IDRYTES Founder Frank Coakley:
Our history books taught us he was the treasurer on the founding line of Iota Phi Theta Fraternity.
Instead, his life and legacy showed us he was a treasure to his wife and family, alma mater (Morgan State University) where he served on the board of regents for many years and attended many football and basketball games as often as he could.
Nicknamed “Spanky” by his grade school brother and later fellow founder, Lonnie C. Spruill Jr., Founder Coakley loved and was a stanch supporter of his fraternity leading by example as he attended chapter meetings, regional meetings, national meetings and so much more to include his favorite past time, golfing at the annual scholarship golf tournament, later renamed the Frank B. Coakley, Scholarship Golf Tournament.
Founder Coakley believed in financial security and understood the strength and opportunities gained through financial literacy. He particularly wanted to support the financial challenges presented to young people seeking higher education.
We introduce you to IDRYTES Founder Frank Coakley. 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.
Eternally Golden:
Iota Phi Theta Fraternity, Inc. recognized a pivotal Woman in the early days of the organization by deeming her The Eternal Sweetheart. Ms. Audrey S. Brooks, then a staff member at Morgan State College, was a tremendous behind-the-scenes support, assisting through tough times of adversity on and off the college campus. She will forever be our yellow rose and the foundation of our golden affair with hearts across the world.
We introduce you to Eternally Golden. 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 Valley Chardonnay.
