Winemaker Notes
A message from Peggy Fleming:
This year, I am celebrating my 57th birthday with the release of Fleming Jenkins Victories Rose. Created by my husband, Greg Jenkins, and me specifically to raise funds for breast cancer research, this wine supports a cause that has touched us personally. 100% of the net profits after taxes of this and future vintages of Victories Rosé will be donated to charities supporting the cause, including The V Foundation for Cancer Research and the Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center at Georgetown University, both 501(c)(3) non-profit organizations.
In 1998, on the 30th anniversary of my 1968 Olympic victory, I was diagnosed with breast cancer. For me, it was another Olympics, a life Olympics. Early detection saved my life. And I believe that my lifelong dedication to health, fitness and personal accomplishment also played an important role in my victory. I was one of the lucky ones, and I am grateful. I decided to share my hopes, my fears and my triumph with people around the world. I hope my story will be an inspiration to anyone facing breast cancer, and that I will be one of the strong symbols of the victories that can be achieved against life's greatest challenges. We must never give up hope.
Please join us in the quest for a cure, with a purchase of Victories Rose. Victories is presented in a stunning magnum (1.5 liter) bottle and packaged in a commemorative hand-crafted wooden box.
Greg and I thank you for your support and generosity.
