Wine Information:
Adytum:
Sigma Pi is proud to honor one of our most notable alumni, 1976 Founders’ Award recipient Walter “Wally” Schirra, Jr. (NJIT ’41). He was one of America’s original seven astronauts and served as commander of the first crew to fly into space aboard Apollo 7. Additionally, Schirra is the only man who flew in all three of America’s first human space projects.
We introduce you to Adytum. 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.
Divine Wisdom:
Sigma Pi is often represented by the owl, whom, in heraldry, is associated with Athena, the Greek goddess of wisdom and victory. The owl is synonymous with our Golden Quest. Through the Pythagorean brotherhood, we learn that the four degrees of instruction are Preparation, Purification, Perfection, and the Application of Divine Wisdom.
We introduce you to Divine Wisdom. 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.
The Patterson Episode:
The Badge - Golden Cross:
Each and every initiated member of the Fraternity proudly wears the Greek cross badge over their heart. The badge represents the fundamental insignia of a brother’s connection to the Fraternity, and the symbols on the badge represent specific aspects of our initiatory rite. Pythagoras taught that feeling is centered in the heart, so the deepest connection to the Fraternity is therefore placed over it.
We introduce you to The Badge - Golden Cross. 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 with 100% Pinot Noir, this magnificent Napa Valley Blanc de Noirs 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.
The Emerald:
As stated in its first issue published in 1911, The Emerald “is the magazine of the Fraternity, the property, the product of the Fraternity, and devoted to the interest of every and all of its members.” PGS Louis L. Moore (Temple 1909) served as the first editor-in-chief of the magazine. More than 380 issues of The Emerald have been produced since the magazine’s inception.
We introduce you to The Emerald. 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.
Convocation:
The first Convocation took place in 1909 in Columbus, Ohio with only four active chapters. Since then, thousands of brothers have gathered to recognize outstanding chapters, undergraduates, and alumni accomplishments. This commemorative bottle represents the 55th & 56th Convocations where more than 100 active chapters gathered in celebration on August 17-20, 2022 in San Antonio, Texas.
We introduce you to Convocation, our 2021 Rosé of Cabernet Sauvignon. The watermelon and strawberry notes burst out of the glass. When served cool on a warm day, the juicy acidity of the 2021 Rosé makes for a very refreshing and versatile wine, perfect to share on any occasion. Look for the hidden imagery in the rose petals.
