Ida Fuller Pierce - 2021 Red Wine - Napa Valley

The fourth wine in the First Five series pays tribute to Ida Fuller Pierce. Vigorous and dynamic as a girl, she would develop into a social-minded woman who, in her own words, refused to accept her sex as ‘irrefutable condemnation to a subordinate position in life.’ She was lively and witty and was the practical voice in the early deliberations of the Sorority. Forced to leave college her junior year due to ill health, she remained committed to Sigma Kappa until her death in 1930.

We introduce you to Ida Fuller Pierce. 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.
