It's the Russian River!

And >> for me, this spot is very exciting because I would say I don't know when is the first vintage that you guys made. Russian River Chardonnay. >> Russian River Chardonnay started I believe in 80. No, I think actually 88 or 89. >> Oh wow. So, I remember the first ones was maybe >> in I don't know 1999 that I've had it and I I really started enjoying Chardonnay a little bit older than that younger in in in >> in vintages like 2001 2002 but I've never understood and I never thought that it has Russia river there's actually a river a name you just thought it was just a name the same as whatever you call >> kalis atlas peak or whatever all these different names that we spoke about call Maniskco, right? Um, so anything it was just the name it was Russian rivers. No. So the answer is the Russian River actually does flow through here and that's the separation. That's this is area Russian River. It's already in the summer. So the water is way lower. But actually if you come I've always threatened that I'm going to come because during February when after rains and there's a lot of actually they had this property a few of the houses on the property got flooded because the water came up so high. So that's how high the water and it's a real river. And in February, this is actually season of salmon. You could come here and fly fish and catch some steelhead salmon, which it's still on my bucket list to do. >> Okay, I might come. >> Please come with me. Then it might actually happen. Um, so this is the Russian River going through the property. Like I said, three different major AVAs joining this property. Russian River, Alexander Valley, and Chalk Hill. >> Amazing, guys. Okay, I'm thirsty. >> Let's go. Let's go. Let's drink some chalk here.
