I googled Alpha Omega Wines nd The Luding Company and this article came up.
BOMBSHELL: Devin Nunes’ Entire Net Worth Sunk In Company With Strong Ties To Russia
If today’s fiasco, which came courtesy of House Intel chair Devin Nunes, wasn’t enough to convince anyone that he can’t conduct a credible investigation into whether or not Trump and his teams colluded with Russia, then this should be: Nunes has put almost his entire net worth into a winery with strong ties to Russia.
How strong? Well, the Alpha Omega Winery has distributors all over the U.S., but just a few abroad. One of those overseas distributors is the Luding Trading Company in Russia. Luding is, in fact, Russia’s largest distributor for alcoholic beverages. But they don’t just operate in Russia – they also appear to have a relationship with Vladimir Putin:
If Russia were truly a free, democratic state, then maybe this could be overlooked as nothing more than a large company wishing the leader of a country that had given them so much a happy birthday. But Russia, under Putin, is anything but truly free. With Luding being the country’s largest distributor of alcohol, it’s highly unlikely that Putin doesn’t have his fingers in it somewhere. The fact that Nunes has his money sunk there is a pretty big deal.
It’s also odd that Alpha Omega Winery would have a relationship with Russia’s largest distributor when they only have a relationship with one Western nation (Switzerland). They don’t have any relationships with any other distributor in the EU, which means no relationships with NATO allies at all.

I'm sure this is all coincidence, right?

I'll bet Nunes has more than $51K too. It's just buried somewhere else.
What a weasel!
