Constantine Conquered - 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon - California

Marching toward Rome on October 27th, 312 A.D., Constantine the Great’s forces were pursuing the armies of Maxentius, a challenger to the crown. According to legend, Constantine, before going into battle, saw a cross in the sky with the Greek words “En Toutoi Nika.” Derived from the Latin translation, “In Hoc Signo Vinces,” meaning in this sign you will conquer.

Early the next morning, Constantine dreamed that a voice commanded him to have his soldiers mark upon their shields the letter “X” with a line drawn through it and a mark across the top. Our Founders drew inspiration from the story of Constantine and thus from Constantine’s vision. Its significance for Sigma Chi is Constantine’s discovery of the noble principles in which he believed and for which he was willing to battle.

We introduce you to Constantine Conquered. This 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon from California is a bold and expressive wine, with rich aromas of blackberry, cassis, and dark cherry complemented by hints of mocha and cedar. On the palate, it delivers a full-bodied experience with layers of blackcurrant, plum, and savory notes.
