And there's old Mike Higgins out there, used to be a Bay Area retailer for many years, and inventor (you could look it up) of the name Rhone Rangers, lives out there, too, though perhaps not actively involved in the trade these days. (He's older than I am, and if you listen to Hoke, that's REALLY old.)

The Applegate Valley winemakers' association?
