Winery history
"Solnechnaya Dolina" is not only a military plant, but also a kind of museum with its own unique history. It all started with the initiative of Prince Golitsyn, who first opened wine production, buying land and planting it with the best grapes. In the future, Gorchakov began to sponsor the production, who allocated huge funds from his personal budget for the development of Russian wines. But once Golitsyn and Gorchakov disagreed on the development of the plant, and the creator of the production was forced to sell his entire business to the investor. Now the "Sun Valley", created by these historical figures, continues to exist. The winery still produces its wines, participates in international competitions and receives huge revenues.
