Best known for Cabernet and Chardonnay varietals. At the eastern end is little-known Knights Valley, which leads into the Valleys beyond. |

Stretches west along Dry Creek, 16 miles long and two miles wide. Best known for Zinfandel grapes, originally planted in the 1860s, as well as Cabernet, Sauvignon Blanc, Merlot, Chardonnay, and Chenin Blanc. New and rediscovered traditional grapes include Syrah, Cinsault, Viognier, San Giovese, and Barbera. Ask for the Russian River Wine Road Map. |
