Tamber Bey Vineyards at Sundance Ranch

Horses and Wine Country Unite The Tamber Bey experience combines highly acclaimed wines with personal service in a stunning equestrian atmosphere Barry Waitte with Bear

16 |

N A PA VA L L E Y G U I D E B O O K

Winemaker Fredric Delivert with Waitte

amber Bey is first and foremost a producer of exceptional estate-grown wines. Since 1999, vintner Barry Waitte has been slowly building the brand from a few hundred cases of his first vintage of Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon to a portfolio of twelve wines from vinyeards totaling almost 10,000 cases. Although still considered a small producer, Tamber Bey has developed a big reputation for handcrafting quality wines, thanks to stellar winemakers Thomas Brown and Frederic Delivert. None of this is immediately apparent to visitors as they arrive at Sundance Ranch and follow the driveway lined with white-fenced paddocks. The 22-acre equestrian facility, designed by renowned Napa Valley architect Howard Backen, is home to a dozen champion performance horses. The only hint that a winery is located on the property is a small sign directing visitors to the winery and tasting room. The horses are an integral part of the Tamber Bey story. Waitte, an accomplished horseman, named the wine company after his first two horses. When he acquired the Sundance Ranch, his vision was to build the winery on the property without altering the horse-centric atmosphere. The wineproduction facility was formerly a covered riding arena, the tasting room is the original clubhouse and the outside courtyard is the focal point of the 16-stall barn. Mount St. Helena and the Palisades Mountain Range provide a stunning scenic backdrop. “In the wine business, people talk about vision in a way that creates an image of an idea,” Waitte says. “My vision was to build a facility for making ultrapremium wines in a location that truly exemplified the Tamber Bey brand. It’s a place where people can get a sense of who we are and what Tamber Bey is all about.” The wine tasting experience is tailored to be personalized. Guests can choose from a tasting menu that offers a flight from the Vineyard Series of estate-grown wines of the Yountville Appellation, including Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon and Bordeaux-style blends. The Signature Series tasting offers a flight of premium wines, including a Dijon Chardonnay, Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir, Merlot and Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon. Those looking for something rare and special will enjoy the library wine flight. And don’t pass up the savory cookies—a popular option to add to any tasting selection. The experienced tasting room staff puts service and wine education as top priorities as they guide each tasting in an informative and friendly manner. “The tasting experience is much more than just a splash of wine in a glass,” Waitte says. “It’s a story that unfolds as each wine is poured. When guests come here, they are wowed by the property, enamored with the horses, and appreciative of our service, but what impresses them most are our wines.” 1251 Tubbs Lane, Calistoga, CA 94515 • (707) 942-2100 • tamberbey.com

Wine Bar Tasting The most common is the Wine Bar Tasting. Step up to the bar, where, typically, a list of wines being poured is displayed. Expect to pay a tasting fee between $10 and $40. Some will give you the option to taste a library or reserve wine and that increases the fee. This allows you to taste very expensive wines that were previously inaccessible without buying the entire bottle. The good news is that some wineries apply the reserve tasting fee to your wine purchase.

Appellations The Napa Valley is what is commonly referred to as an appellation. In the United States, the legal term is American Viticultural Area, or AVA, and Napa Valley was the first in California designated in 1981. Within the Napa Valley AVA, regions have been recognized that possess distinct microclimates and terrain, imprinting recognizable characteristics on the grapes grown there. These AVAs are commonly referred to as sub- or nested-appellations. This great diversity allows a wide range of fine wine grapes to grow well here, and provides the winemaker a diverse palette from which to create their wine. All to bring consumers an incredible selection of consistent high quality wines from the region. To help you find and learn about these AVAs, the colors used below correspond with those used on the fold-out winery map at the front of the guidebook.

WINE characteristics REDS

WHITEs

BARBERA Barbera pairs bright, crisp berry flavors and hints of smoke with bold tannins and high acidity. PAIRING: Smoked salmon, grilled mozzarella and prosciutto, and flatbread with fresh tomato, basil and roasted garlic.

NAPA VALLEY America’s Legendary Wine & Food Region ALFRESCO DINING This Italian term literally means “out in the fresh air.” Alfresco dining is a great option in the Napa Valley where indoor spaces naturally flow to the outdoors. It is the perfect place to dine outdoors because the average daytime temperature is between 65°F and 85°F during three seasons of the year. You can experience patios or terraces with vineyard views, panoramic views and golf course views and even dine near an outdoor fireplace. If the weather is cool, many restaurants will have outdoor heaters to take off the chill.

CALIFORNIA AND/OR WINE COUNTRY CUISINE

Waters, the chef at Chez Panisse in Berkeley, is credited with creating the California Cuisine culinary style.

TAPAS OR SMALL PLATES The Spanish culture brings us this great tradition and allows us to sample a variety of tastes that showcase a chef ’s culinary talents. Tapas literally means “covers,” which were small food bowls put on the tops of wineglasses to keep flies out. In a tapas bar, these small plates are a great way to pair a variety of different tastes with the many wonderful wines of the Valley. It is acceptable to share tapas and is also encouraged.

CORKAGE

In this style of restaurant, the chef uses the freshest ingredients possible. Since California supports so much diverse agriculture, this is easier to do year-round and Napa Valley chefs have embraced the philosophy to the point of farmto-table freshness. Fusion of different cooking styles is also a characteristic of this cuisine and strong attention to presentation is important. The chef may buy ingredients from a nearby ranch or a local farmers’ market or even grow some items on-site. Menus may change daily depending upon what is in season and at the peak of quality at the local market. Alice

This is the charge for opening a bottle of wine brought to a restaurant. Bringing your own bottle of wine to a restaurant may be frowned upon in other parts of the country, but is a common practice in the Napa Valley. If you bring a bottle purchased at a winery or wine shop, expect to pay $10-20 per bottle in corkage fees. There are exceptions, so ask when you make a reservation. Some restaurants will waive the corkage fee if you buy another bottle from their wine list. A good option is to take a red varietal and buy a white wine from the restaurant’s wine list. Don’t bring an inexpensive wine because it may cost more with the corkage fee than if you buy the house wine at the restaurant.

Rickman. Youngman is a member of California Art Club and Signature Member of Oil Painters of America. He has been featured in American Art Collector, Art of the West, Southwest Art magazines, as well as Art Talk, and the coffee-table book Art of the American West. WAYNE MCKENZIE’s art emanates a laid back confidence that is a reflection of his Australian upbringing. With loose brushwork and bold use of color, he brings a unique perspective to the contemporary North American art world. His strong sense of design is derived from the Aboriginal art of his native Australia. His paintings are a visual journey that allows the essence of his subject matter come to life. McKenzie has appeared in various publications throughout the United States. He was most recently honored as a feature artist in the hardcover book Best of Artists-Oil-Global Edition. Renowned art critic Susan Viebrock wrote, “Anyone who doesn’t love a McKenzie must have a low opinion of joy . . big personality— big work.” And went on to describe his work as having “a delightful sense of movement, vibration and exuberance.”

SPAS

SPAS REJUVENATION Spa Terra, located in the “Heart of the Earth,” features natural curative treatments along with steam grottos, whirlpool baths and a relaxation lounge. This unique spa is unparalleled in luxury and is ranked one of the Top 100 Spas in America.

D i s c o v e r J u s t t h e R i g h t Tr e a t m e n t Spas and Wellness Centers offer a wide variety of relaxing therapies and treatments. Packages and treatments are as varied as the number of spas. Heart patients, diabetics and those with arteriosclerosis should consult with their physicians as body temperatures and pulse rate can change rapidly.

CHOOSE A SPA TREATMENT

CHOOSE A MASSAGE STYLE

Our hurried lifestyles are rather stressful and the body doesn’t relax and function at its full capacity. A spa treatment along with soothing music and a relaxing atmosphere provides a sense of well-being for the body.

A massage is not only relaxing but can improve circulation and relieve congestion throughout the body. You may encounter numerous massage styles in the Napa Valley. The following list is an example of some of the more popular styles you will encounter.

MUD BATHS AND WRAPS Mud baths are usually found in areas where volcanic ash and hot spring water can be combined. This treatment is extremely soothing to the joints. A mud wrap on the other hand can be any type of mud mixture that is rubbed or brushed on and is typically used to enhance the skin. MINERAL BATH OR POOL These are geothermally heated mineral pools or baths. A bath will be much more private than a pool and a pool sometimes gets its heat from a heater. HOT STEAM BATH / SHOWER The natural question is how is this different from a sauna? A sauna gains its heat from water being thrown on a stone. The air is typically hotter and dryer. By contrast a steam bath gains its heat by the introduction of hot steam. The temperature is usually quite mild compared to a sauna and it is 100% humid. Sometimes oils or perfumes are added to the steam to enhance the experience.

HERBAL HOT BLANKET WRAP The blanket typically has a linen component to it and is heated by a solution of hot water. A variety of herbs can be added to the wrap and/or water to enhance the cleansing effect that is desired. This raises the body temperature very quickly, in the attempt to sweat out toxins in your system. It is often combined with another treatment. FACIALS These are a specialty of the Napa Valley. It includes cleansing, exfoliation, oxygenating, hydration and a relaxing massage. Treatments can be varied to deal with specific skin types.

AROMATHERAPY Therapeutic massage combining fragrant oils for added health benefits. DEEP TISSUE The therapist uses knuckles, forearms and elbows to lengthen and deeply work the muscles to release tension. Good for stimulating circulation. LYMPHATIC A rhythmic massage and stimulation of pressure points that work on the lymphatic system and strengthen the immune system. REFLEXOLOGY Applied pressure on certain key areas of the feet and/or hands that stimulates the body’s natural ability to heal itself. SHIATSU A Japanese finger-pressure massage used to stretch and open energy points in the body and reduce stress. Shiatsu massages are usually done while you are fully clothed, so wear loose-fitting clothing. SPORTS An active, full-body massage for professional and amateur athletes that specifically works on the muscle groups that get the most stress. SWEDISH OR THERAPEUTIC A soothing full-body massage that stimulates circulation and reduces stress and muscle tension. Choose a gentle or firm massage.

SHOP IN PICTURESQUE TOWN SETTINGS Napa’s Riverfront, located on the river in downtown Napa, provides a wonderful setting for shopping, wine tasting and dining. These restored buildings are the vestiges of the thriving riverside commercial center of the late 1800s and early 1900s. Additonally, the Napa Premium Outlets, with more than fifty famous brand stores, is the place where you can literally shop until you drop. In Yountville is V Marketplace, a refurbished winery that houses more than twenty-five specialty shops and galleries that fill the nooks and crannies of the historic landmark. St. Helena’s Main Street is a destination for upvalley shopping. Welcoming boutiques, along with bath, home and artisan food shops beckon you to venture beyond the usual. At the north end of the valley, Calistoga is the place to spot unique jewlery, home accessories, and spa products inspired by the area’s mud baths.

A PLACE FOR ALL SEASONS

N a p a Va l l e y G u i d e b o o k

A PLACE FOR ALL SEASONS W h a t e v e r t h e S e a s o n , N a p a Va l l e y i s a Wo n d e r f u l P l a c e t o V i s i t SUMMER Summer will lure you with golden hills, lush vines and the warmth of the sun. Evenings can be cool, so bring a wrap for outdoor dining and for an evening to enjoy an outdoor concert. The Robert Mondavi Summer Music Festival is a popular series in July and August.

FALL Autumn presents the fragrance of the Crush and a patchwork of reds, golds and greens. Get your reservations early for this popular time of year. You may want to attend the Napa Valley Film Festival and Flavor! Napa Valley, events that are fast becoming world renowned.

WINTER Vivid yellow mustard amid the sleeping vines and lush green hills invite you to sip wine next to a cozy fireplace. No wonder this time of the year has become known as “Cabernet Season.” The combination of Napa Valley Restaurant Month, February, and sipping Cabernet Sauvignon makes winter a perfect time for visiting.

SPRING Spring bursts forth with an unbelievable bouquet of color—all the natural beauty that you could imagine. Napa Valley Arts In April celebrates the art collections in wineries, and near the end of this season are four glorious days of festivities known as Auction Napa Valley, The American Wine Classic.

CLIMATE The Napa Valley enjoys a year-round average daytime temperature of 70° Fahrenheit. Several microclimates vary the temperature substantially from the early morning to the evening and create variances at the same time of day between northern and southern locations. The dress is casual and the “layered look” is both functional and advisable for day to evening activities (evenings can be chilly and up to 30°F cooler than the daytime). Because it is a Mediterranean climate, it tends to rain mostly between December and February. The rain, however, makes winter one of the most beautiful seasons with vibrant green grass and brilliant yellow mustard flowers. To find out what’s happening during each season, visit www.visitnapavalley.com.
