2015 Waypoint Cabernet Sauvignon “Oakville Ranch” Tasting Notes
2015 Waypoint Cabernet Sauvignon “Oakville Ranch” A waypoint is an intermediate point or place on a route or line of travel. In modern terms, it most often refers to coordinates which specify one’s position on the globe. In the wine world, one’s waypoint tells a unique story of time and place in the glass. Waypoint was born out of the idea of spotlighting single-vineyard properties, throughout California, to highlight the unique terroir and characteristics of each of these singular plots of dirt. Between Pinot Noir, Cabernet, Merlot, and Petit Verdot, Waypoint was one of the first brands in California to place an emphasis on sourcing fruit from one specific locale and giving it the credit it was due. A wonderful exercise in sourcing fruit from infamous plots, Waypoint enables us to dig deep into our rolodex to find fruit from unique places that deserve a little more attention. It all starts with fantastic vineyards and folks who farm the right way. There are plenty of important decisions that follow, but ultimately, it’s about letting the wines speak for themselves rather than digging into the winemaking bag of tricks. Single- vineyard wines need to stand on their own merit. Waypoint harnesses that belief with both hands and lets the vineyard and corresponding wine do all the talking. Tasting Notes Hillside Oakville fruit is responsible for some of the most iconic wines in Napa Valley. Expertly farmed to organic standards by Phil Coturri, this wine is very smooth and inviting and filled to the rim with juicy black cherry liqueur and blueberry fruit.

1 2 Year Wine Name Rating Maturity Price 2010 Amapola Creek
USA, California: Richard Arrowood 50th Anniversary Retrospective Tasting August 28, 2015 Richard Arrowood, who I have known for close to 30 years, certainly has one of the most impressive resumés of any winemaker in California. He was born in Santa Rosa, California, and by age 20 was already working in a laboratory at Korbel Winery. After completing his college and post-graduate education in Fermentation Science at California State University in Fresno, he joined United Vintners, then in 1970 became Assistant Winemaker at Rodney Strong. From there he went on to his first fame and hopefully fortune, working at the brand new Chateau St. Jean winery in 1973. He stayed there until 1990, when he started his own Arrowood Winery in Glen Ellen. This lasted for a decade, when he sold Arrowood to the Robert Mondavi family, who subsequently sold the winery in 2006 to the Jackson family (Kendall-Jackson). In 2000, Arrowood started Amapola Creek Winery on a 100-acre site and began planting Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah and Petite Verdot. The winery is relatively limited in production, producing 3,000 cases of Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah, a handful of Chardonnays, and Zinfandel from their neighbor, the historic Monte Rosso Vineyard. In 2015, Dick Arrowood celebrated his 50th anniversary in the wine business, and it has been an impressive run, as indicated by the following tasting notes. This tasting took place at the end of April, 2015. It was remarkable in its scope, diversity, overall quality, and particularly the ability of so many of the wines to age beautifully. Since I have only been writing about wine for 37 years, it was a true honor and privilege to be invited to this 50th anniversary retrospective tasting.

Pinotfile Vol 11 Issue 2
Pinot Noir is the most sensual of all grapes Volume 11, Issue 2 April 18, 2017 Goldeneye Goldeneye Winery dates to 1996 when Duckhorn Wine Company owners Dan and Margaret Duckhorn bought the former Obester Winery in the hamlet of Philo along Highway 128 in the Anderson Valley, and the following year planted the 57-acre Confluence Vineyard to Pinot Noir. With the subsequent acquisition of additional Anderson Valley vineyard properties, Goldeneye now farms four estate vineyards encompassing over 200 acres, second in Anderson Valley acreage only to the vast vineyard holdings of Roederer Estate. Dan and Margaret Duckhorn had established a reputation for outstanding Bordeaux-varietal wines (particularly Merlot) from Napa Valley, but through the years developed a passion for Pinot Noir. They envisioned a winery devoted to Pinot Noir and found a suitable location in the Anderson Valley. The vineyards were to become among the first in California to receive sustainable certification and a Pinot-focused winery that was built became one of only three wineries in California to earn the LEED Gold environmental certification. The name, Goldeneye, derives from a yellow-eyed waterfowl that occasionally calls Anderson Valley home since it lies on the bird’s migratory route. The initial winemaker, Zach Rasmuson, established the winery’s reputation. Michael Fay took over the helm in 2012 and further refined the bold Goldeneye style by adding some native ferments, employing less saignée to accentuate the mouthfeel of the wines, and dialing back the percentage of new oak slightly. Michael left Goldeneye in 2016 for a winemaking post in the Central Coast, and was replaced by Michael Accurso who had worked alongside Michael as assistant winemaker since 2014.
