Dekes of Distinction - 2020 Cuvée Blanc - Napa Valley

Introducing Dekes of Distinction: a wine collection honoring DKE brothers who’ve made significant impacts on the world. This inaugural edition celebrates explorer Robert E. Peary (Theta-Bowdoin '77) and his legendary 1909 North Pole expedition, in which, while carrying a DKE flag, he became the first person to reach the geographic North Pole. This wine celebrates his extraordinary expedition, a tale of bravery honored the world over. The Deke flag he carried with him is now proudly showcased at the Smithsonian Museum of American History.

We introduce you to Dekes of Distinction. This elegant white wine blend is alluring and complex. The nose is like a bouquet of flowers and jumps from the glass with ripe lemon, white peach and orange blossom followed by notes of toast and white pepper. On the tongue, lemon bursts forward with pineapple and other tropical fruit, with undertones of vanilla. The finish is bright and zingy and mellows with vanilla and subtle spices in its length.
