1852 FOUNDERS BLEND - 2018 Red Wine - Napa Valley

This proprietary blend commemorates the birth of our Brotherhood on February 19, 1852. While students at Jefferson College, our Founders were among a brave few who remained on campus as a typhoid fever epidemic ravaged the community. Through late-night vigils tending to the sick and the mourning, the two developed an unbreakable bond. A year later, as blizzard winds battered the campus, these honorable men gathered to create a brotherhood in the spirit of helping those in need. That fateful wintry night, Phi Kappa Psi was born.

We introduce you to our 1852 Founders Blend. 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.
