The Original Ten Founder - Loyal - 2021 Red Wine - Napa Valley

Kate’s enthusiasm for Alpha Phi was infectious, and her immense loyalty to the organization was demonstrated by her involvement. She served as the first recording secretary of the chapter and, along with Martha Foote Crow, wrote our ritual and the first Constitution. She also served as Alpha Phi’s third International President in 1875. In 1901, Kate pledged the Fraternity’s first legacy — her daughter — Ruth Gilbert Becker (Alpha-Syracuse), continuing the legacy of Alpha Phi for generations to come.

We introduce you Loyal - Kate. Beautiful dark color from a concentrated vintage, this wine leads out with brooding dark fruit aromas of black cherry, blackberries and baking spices with some underlying clay earth and toasty oak. The palate dances with bright fruits that turn darker with time in this full-bodied wine, which is juicy and approachable now, but will also reveal other nuances with age, especially coming from a deep and heralded vintage.
