"Established in 1882, Korbel Champagne Cellars has been a part of America's greatest celebrations for more than 120 years. It has been the exclusive champagne of the past five presidential inaugurations, and was the champagne of choice for the Camelot years of the Kennedy administration... More than 2000 acres of rolling hills are host to the Korbel vineyards, growing a variety of grapes including Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc, and the special Pinot Noir that makes Korbel Champagne one of the most sought after in the world. The Russian River Valley is surrounded by pine-covered mountains, and is blessed with bright sun, blue skies and cool ocean breezes that roll through the grapevines, all combining to provide the climate perfect for both winegrowing and vacationing."
