As a member of The 1865 Wine Club, you have a unique opportunity to celebrate KA’s history and ensure its future!

Since 1865, the bonds of our brotherhood have only grown stronger. Our alumni have the unique opportunity to support the educational initiatives of the Kappa Alpha Order Educational Foundation by becoming members of the 1865 Wine Club . Brothers who join this club will receive two shipments of 3 or 6 bottles per year of handcrafted Napa Valley wines made exclusively for Kappa Alpha Order members.

When you enjoy a glass of Excelsior Napa Valley wine, you are supporting the Fraternity and the education of our brothers, while enjoying fine wine from America’s most famous wine country.

We would love for you to consider joining the 1865 Wine Club to celebrate our great fraternity and give back to the organization that holds such a special place in our hearts.

Excelsior - Sparkling Brut - Méthode Champenoise - Napa Valley

The motto, Excelsior, reminds KAs to strive for excellence in all things and to never settle for mediocrity. What better name to make a KA proud and what better way to celebrate any great accomplishment than with a bottle bearing this brave device.

This premium sparkling wine – meticulously and artfully made in the traditional champagne method – rivals anything found from the best Champagne houses in Épernay and Reims. Blended superbly from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, this magnificent Napa Valley Brut exhibits rich fruit aromatics of strawberry and delicate white cherry that follows through to a creamy mid-palate accompanied with highlights of lime and wet minerality and a lingering vibrant finish.
