_All Three Crimson Dynasty Wines Receive 93-94 Point Ratings from One of the World’s
Most Influential Wine Authorities_

Mountain Brook, Alabama, United States, June 24, 2026 /MarketersMEDIA/ — Crimson
Dynasty Wines, the wine label that combines world-class California winemaking with
The University of Alabama tradition, today announced that all three of its flagship
wines earned Highly Recommended ratings from Decanter, one of the world’s most respected
and influential wine publications.

The recognition includes:

 * **94 Points – Crimson Dynasty Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley 2023**
 * **93 Points – Crimson Dynasty Pinot Noir, California 2024**
 * **93 Points – Crimson Dynasty Chardonnay, Alexander Valley, Sonoma County 2024**

Earning ratings of 93 points or higher across all three Crimson Dynasty wines represents
a significant achievement in the wine industry and reflects the consistency, quality,
and craftsmanship behind the Crimson Dynasty brand. 

“These ratings validate what we set out to accomplish from the very beginning,” 
said Butch Burkett and Bill Rodrigues of Collegiate Wines, LLC. “We wanted to create
wines that Alabama alumni and fans would be proud to share with family, friends,
and clients. We wanted wines that could stand on their own merit alongside highly
regarded wines from anywhere in the world. Receiving these ratings from Decanter
is a tremendous honor for Crimson Dynasty, our winemaker Jean Hoefliger, and the
Alabama community that has supported us from the beginning. We are blessed to be
part of such a passionate and supportive Alabama family.”

All three wines were reviewed by acclaimed wine journalist Jonathan Cristaldi and
crafted by Jean Hoefliger, a Swiss-born, internationally acclaimed winemaker whose
global experience spans Bordeaux, South Africa, Italy, Spain, and California, and
whose wines have earned multiple 100-point ratings.

For more than 50 years, Decanter has served as one of the wine industry’s most trusted
authorities. Its reviews and ratings influence wine collectors, restaurants, retailers,
sommeliers, distributors, and consumers throughout the world.

The achievement reinforces Crimson Dynasty’s founding vision of creating world-class
wines that unite The University of Alabama alumni, fans, students, and wine enthusiasts
around a shared tradition of excellence. Developed by Collegiate Wines, Crimson 
Dynasty combines premium California winemaking with the spirit of Alabama, and a
royalty from every bottle sold supports The University of Alabama and its student-
athletes. More than a wine collection, Crimson Dynasty celebrates the traditions,
championship moments, lifelong friendships, and shared experiences that make the
Alabama family a bond that endures for a lifetime.

Leading the trio is the **Crimson Dynasty Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley 2023**,
which earned **94 points**. Decanter praised the wine for its forest berry character,
earthy complexity, powerful structure, and mineral-driven finish.

The **Crimson Dynasty Pinot Noir, California 2024,** earned **93 points** and was
described as “the kind of wine that invites conversation,” featuring layered red
berry fruit, baking spice, and refined tannins.

The **Crimson Dynasty Chardonnay, Alexander Valley, Sonoma County 2024**, also received**
93 points**. Described as “pleasure-packed,” it offers vibrant tropical and stone
fruit flavors balanced by subtle richness and freshness.
