By the late twentieth century the three valleys had won formal recognition as American Viticultural Areas, and Healdsburg's identity settled into place: Zinfandel from Dry Creek, Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from the Russian River, Cabernet from Alexander Valley — a town defined by what grows around it. The Russian River still runs through it all, with its swimming beaches in summer and its mist in the cool of the morning.
Today Healdsburg is known the world over for its wine, its food, and its historic plaza, while keeping the easygoing feel of a Sonoma farm town. Our Healdsburg designs gather that identity — the bear-and-star emblem, the three-valley wine country, and the 1857 plaza — into wearable form. Healdsburg, California — where the Russian River meets three great wine valleys, and a historic 1857 plaza still anchors one of America's most charming small towns.
