Legacy - 2019 Red Wine - Napa Valley

Legacy is the second release in The Founders series, which honors the six men that together established the brotherhood that still lives on today. Born William Bradford, Littleton Waller Tazewell changed his name to preserve the memory of his maternal grandfather, a beloved governor of Virginia. He lived in 47 West Range with his cousin, Frederick Southgate Taylor. Tazewell was the first beneficiary of family introducing family into the bonds of phi phi kappa alpha. After graduation, he went on to become a successful businessman and was prominent in public life. The Fraternity’s first legacy, Tazewell earned that title in his own right by the manner in which he lived his life and spread his radiance through the hearts of our brothers.

We introduce you to Legacy. The 2019 Founders Red Wine is an artful red blend created by winemaker Todd Heth. This wine 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. The second bottling honors the wisdom of Founder Thomas Cowan Bell.
