No, I like Sauvignon Blanc. Spending all my adult professional life in Dry Creek Valley. Dry Creek Valley's history is Zinfandel. It goes back to the late 1860s, like 66, 67, 1867. So Zinfandel has been in this valley forever. And I was lucky enough to come here when a lot of the old children of Italian immigrants were still, they were in their 70s and 80s when I met them.

And then after Prohibition. And so we, you know, my favorite red grape still is Zinfandel. There's others, but still Zinfandel. And I love Sauvignon Blanc.
