SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On August 23, 1978, ATF published Treasury Decision ATF-53 (43 FR
37672, 54624) revising regulations in 27 CFR part 4. These regulations
allow the establishment of definitive viticultural areas. The
regulations allow the name of an approved viticultural area to be used
as an appellation of origin on wine labels and in wine advertisements.
On October 2, 1979, ATF published Treasury Decision ATF-60 (44 FR
56692) which added a new part 9 to 27 CFR, providing for the listing of
approved American viticultural areas, the names of which may be used as
appellations of origin.
Section 4.25a(e)(l), title 27, CFR, defines an American
viticultural area as a delimited grape-growing region distinguishable
by geographic features, the boundaries of which have been delineated in
subpart C of part 9.
Section 4.25a(e)(2), title 27, CFR, outlines the procedure for
proposing an American viticultural area. Any interested person may
petition ATF to establish a grape-growing region as a viticultural
area. The petition should include:
(a) Evidence that the name of the proposed viticultural area is
locally and/or nationally known as referring to the area specified in
the petition;
(b) Historical or current evidence that the boundaries of the
viticultural area are as specified in the petition;
(c) Evidence relating to the geographical characteristics (climate,
soil, elevation, physical features, etc.) which distinguish the
viticultural features of the proposed area from surrounding areas;
(d) A description of the specific boundaries of the viticultural
area, based on features which can be found on United States Geological
Survey (U.S.G.S.) maps of the largest applicable scale, and;
(e) A copy (or copies) of the appropriate U.S.G.S. map(s) with the
proposed boundaries prominently marked.
Petition
ATF has received a petition from Mr. Timothy Buckner proposing to
establish a new viticultural area located within the east central
interior portion of Mendocino County, California to be known as
``Redwood Valley,'' under 27 CFR part 9.
There are currently seven wineries in ``Redwood Valley.'' The dates
they were bonded are as follows: Fetzer (1968), Weibel (1972), Frey
(1980), Lolonis (1983), Elizabeth (1987), Konrad (1989), and Gabrielli
(1991).
Evidence That the Name of the Proposed Area Is Locally or Nationally
Known
The petitioner states that, ``Redwood Valley'' is an unincorporated
rural community in Mendocino County of northwestern California with
approximately 6,000 people spread out over about 35 square miles.
According to the petitioner, it is currently the home of seven wineries
that produce premium to ultra premium varietal wines distributed around
the world. According to the petitioner, ``Redwood Valley'' grapes are
used in vineyard designated wines made by wineries throughout the
region. The petitioner further states that, there are 66 vineyard
owners farming 2,371 acres of wine grapes in Redwood Valley. There are
855 acres of white winegrapes (36%) and 1,516 (64%) planted in red
varieties in Redwood Valley according to the petitioner.
History and Tradition
According to the petitioner, the area has been known by the
proposed viticultural area name for over a century. The petitioner
states that some early settlers arrived in ``Redwood Valley'' in the
mid 1850s, and that there was a thriving community by 1900. The
petitioner states that from as early as the 1870s, grape growing and
wine making were an important part of the economy and culture of
``Redwood Valley.'' According to the petitioner, one of the earliest
published mentions of ``Redwood Valley'' as a grape growing region was
in a March 7, 1913, article in the Ukiah Republican Press (1885-1954),
which described ``Redwood Valley'' as ``* * * admirably adapted for the
grape and fruit land in Northern California.''
In the March 17, 1913 issue of the Ukiah Dispatch Democrat, the
petitioner found the following article: The Redwood Valley Improvement
Club Accomplishing Splendid Results By Concentrated Action and
Progressiveness, which stated as follows: ``This is perhaps at the
present time one of the most important industries of the valley, with
hundreds of acres in vineyards and several important wineries in active
operation, and because of the statements made * * * by Professor
Bioletti, the grape question has taken on a renewed activity. Redwood
Valley grapes are exceptionally rich in sugar and are in demand because
they raise the quality of wine. Much of the valley's product is
contracted for over a term of years * * * (g)rapes produce splendidly
on the bench lands of the valley, and because of the sunshine and
climatic conditions mature and produce the ideal wine grapes.''
In the Santa Rosa Press Democrat, the petitioner found an article
printed on July 31, 1949, and titled, ``It's Howdy Neighbor To
Calpella, Redwood Valley,'' by Mike Pardee. According to the
petitioner, this article states that, ``[a]pproximately half of
Mendocino County's present grape acreage of 7,700 acres is in Redwood
Valley. Farm Advisor R.D. Foote of Mendocino County said. ``The Valley
thus raised about half of the county's 17,000 tons produced last year
(1948) * * * Redwood Valley for years has been one of Mendocino
County's most important farming sections. Its 314 families for the most
part farmers * * *. They'll tell you that those grapes make the finest
wines in the region'.''
Name Evidence
``Redwood Valley'' is recognized by the United States Postal
Service as a distinct community with the Zip Code 95470. The U.S.G.S.
uses the name ``Redwood Valley'' Quadrangle on its 1:24,000 topographic
map. The petitioner states that the valley has a domestic and
irrigation water supplier known as ``Redwood Valley County Water
District.'' The petitioner points out that a number of entities give
the area its sense of identity, including the ``Redwood Valley
Grange,'' ``Redwood Valley School,'' ``Redwood Valley Shopping
Center,'' ``Redwood Valley Industrial Park.'' According to the
petitioner, businesses and organizations using the ``Redwood Valley''
name include a large vineyard, a gravel plant, 2 churches, a Pomo
Indian Rancheria, and so on. The petitioner provided photocopies of
stationery and business cards from six private and three public
entities that use the name ``Redwood Valley'' in their title. According
to the petitioner, each of the entities are currently in business and
located in ``Redwood Valley.''
Historical or Current Evidence That the Boundaries of the Proposed
Viticultural Area Are as Specified in the Petition
According to the petitioner, the proposed ``Redwood Valley''
viticultural area boundaries are roughly the watershed that forms the
headwaters of the west fork of the Russian River, including Forsythe
Creek. Starting at the northern tip of the valley and following the
ridge tops, the area widens out to the south as far as State Highway
20.
[[Page 46405]]
Across Highway 20 to the south is the community of Calpella. Highway 20
provides a distinct southern boundary for the proposed viticultural
area. The petitioner states that Calpella has a different zip code,
water district, school, etc. than Redwood Valley. Furthermore,
according to the petitioner, the soils and climate of Calpella occupy a
transition zone between Ukiah and ``Redwood Valley.''
Evidence Relating to the Geographical Features (Climate, Soil,
Elevation, Physical Features, Etc.) Which Distinguish the Viticultural
Features of the Proposed Area From Surrounding Areas
Topography
According to the petitioner, the geography of the area sets it
apart from surrounding areas in several respects. The petitioner states
that, ``Redwood Valley'' is clearly defined by the ridges of the
coastal mountain range that surrounds it and that the Valley floor
slopes gently up in elevation from around 750' to 900' above sea level.
The petitioner states that the mountain ridges rise steeply from the
valley floor to over 3,350' elevation. The petitioner states that most
of the grapes are grown at an elevation between 750' and 1,500' above
sea level. At the south end of the valley the foothills close in from
the east and west to form a narrowed throat through which the Russian
River flows south. This narrowing is also where Highway 20 crosses the
valley and the river to intersect with Highway 101. The petitioner
states that this combination of landforms provides a natural set of
boundaries for the proposed viticultural area. These features combine
in several ways to produce growing conditions which distinguish the
proposed area from surrounding areas, according to the petitioner. The
petition contends that the soils, as well as the micro, meso, and macro
climates are all factors that distinguish the proposed viticultural
area from surrounding areas.
Soils
According to the petitioner, while all of the specific soil series
that are found in ``Redwood Valley'' also exist in the surrounding
areas, the proportions of the soils in ``Redwood Valley'' distinguish
it from the surrounding areas. The petitioner states that, The Wine
Regions of America, a book written by John J. Baxevanis in 1992, gives
the following description of the Redwood Valley area. ``Redwood Valley,
the northernmost of the string of Russian River Valleys, lies (eight)
miles north of Ukiah and Lake Mendocino on a series of higher terraces.
Representing the birthplace of Mendocino winemaking, it is the home of
some of the county's largest wineries. With more than 40 percent of the
county's acreage, it is the most important of all the producing regions
in the two county region [Lake and Mendocino]. A region II area, it
produces above-average quality Zinfandel, Cabernet Sauvignon,
Chardonnay, Petite Sirah, and Sauvignon Blanc. One of its elements of
celebrity is the considerable quantity of Manzanita soil.'' (pg. 295).
The petitioner was unable to ascertain the origin of the term
``Manzanita soil.'' However, he states that, ``Redwood Valley does
contain the largest deposit of the famous Redvine soil in the region
and perhaps it is this to which Baxevanis refers.''
According to the petitioner, the soils in the proposed area have
several unique features as determined by the U.S.D.A. Soil Conservation
Service (SCS).
The 1991 Soil Survey of Mendocino County, Eastern Part, and Trinity
County, Southwestern Part, California, was used extensively by the
petitioner to determine the identity and areas of soils for comparison.
Whereas all of the specific soil series that are found in ``Redwood
Valley'' occur in the surrounding area, it is the proportions in which
they appear in ``Redwood Valley'' that are unique.
The petitioner states that ``Redwood Valley'' has by far the
largest deposit of Redvine Series soil (#184-186 SCS Survey) in the
area. According to the petitioner, nearly one quarter of the proposed
viticultural area's plantable acreage is composed of soils of the
Redvine Series. Potter Valley Viticultural Area to the east has no
Redvine Series soils. The petitioner contends that the Calpella/Ukiah
area to the south of ``Redwood Valley'' has a few small and isolated
pockets of Redvine soils but their combined area amounts to less than
10% of the area covered by Redvine Series soils in ``Redwood Valley.''
Another soil series that stands out, according to the petitioner,
is the Pinole Gravelly Loam (#178-180 SCS Survey), which also occurs in
the Potter Valley and Ukiah areas, but is a much smaller component of
the areas' overall composition. According to the petitioner, ``Redwood
Valley'' has three times as much Pinole Gravelly Loam as either of
these other two areas. The petitioner states that this soil type makes
up nearly a third of ``Redwood Valley's'' growing area.
The petitioner states that the Redvine and Pinole Gravelly Loam
soil series comprise over half of the vineyard acreage of ``Redwood
Valley,'' and that the rest are an amalgam of six other types: Feliz,
Pinnobie, Yokayo, Russian, Talmage, and Yokayo/Pinole/Pinobie.
According to the petitioner, these last six general types (plus traces
of a few more types) evidence themselves in the neighboring areas in
varying proportion, but all play a larger role elsewhere than they do
in ``Redwood Valley.''
The petitioner provided a table illustrating the proportions of
soil types in the ``Redwood Valley'' area compared with the Ukian/
Calpella area. These figures were derived from SCS maps and soil
descriptions, and were measured with a Compensating Polar Planimeter.
The table indicates that, while ``Redwood Valley'' contains most of the
same soil types as the Ukia Valley, such soils are present in different
quantities in the respective areas.
Climate
One local winemaker, Jefferson Hinchliffe of Gabrielli Winery
stated as follows about the way ``Redwood Valley's'' unique climate and
soils manifest themselves in the wine: ``I have been making wines from
the many districts of Mendocino County for (t)en years. During that
period I have developed a sense of what distinguishes the wines of
Redwood Valley * * *. The wines in general are of higher acidity and
later maturity than of Ukiah Valley. The typical picking schedule for a
given variety would begin with the Hopland-Sanel area, followed by
Ukiah-Calpella, and then Redwood Valley. Comparisons with Potter Valley
are based on fewer varieties since Potter Valley is planted mainly to
early ripening Pinot and Chardonnay. Anderson Valley north of Boonville
ripens later than Redwood Valley * * * Acidity, color (especially in
Pinot Noir), and phenolic content are higher in Redwood Valley than in
adjacent regions. Higher temperatures in general lower phenolic
content, color, and acidity * * *. Late ripening varieties can have
difficulty ripening in Redwood Valley. Cabernet in general is able to
tolerate the rain associated with the late season, but more fragile
varieties such as Petite Sirah, Carignane, and Sangiovese can rot
before ripening in heavier soils when bearing large crops. Conservative
farming can produce stellar examples of these varieties * * *.''
Another wine maker, Jed Steele, of Steele Wines submitted a letter
of support for the petition, in which he stated as follows. ``[T]he
REDWOOD VALLEY of Mendocino County is an
[[Page 46406]]
excellent and singular grape growing region, certainly worthy of
receiving a separate viticultural district designation * * *. It
appears that REDWOOD VALLEY'S particular climate allows for attaining
many of the positive quality factors found in grapes grown in the
cooler regions of Mendocino (Anderson Valley, etc.) as well as giving
harvests that allow for more consistent maturity found in the more
interior valleys (Potter Valley, etc.) of this county.''
In addition, the February 15, 1993 issue of The Wine Spectator,
page 11, contains an article entitled ``California's Redwood Valley
Moves Out of the Shadows,'' by Robyn Bullard, which states as follows.
``Wineries such as Fetzer, Weibel, and Frey have been in Redwood Valley
for years, but now four more wineries have cropped up. The region
boasts good soil and operating costs that are cheaper than other areas
in Northern California * * * Costs aside, Redwood Valley vineyards have
long yielded quality grapes * * * Compared to the hot Ukiah Valley,
Redwood Valley is much cooler. The area rarely gets fog, but the
terrain and location allow ocean breezes--the same winds that cool
Anderson Valley.''
According to the petitioner, there are a number of factors that
make ``Redwood Valley'' climatically distinct. The petitioner provided
a table listing the major agricultural areas of Mendocino County and
their respective climatic region and number of degree days, as
reflected in the SCS Soil Survey, 1991, pg. 4. Degree day figures for
Anderson Valley were unavailable. The table indicates that ``Redwood
Valley'' has 2,914 degree days and is the only Region II Climate in
Mendocino County, factors that the petitioner states are significant.
In support of this assertion, the petitioner cites the grape growing
textbook General Viticulture, 1974, by Winkler et al., which he states
contains the following excerpt: ``Region II.--An area of great
importance. The valleys can produce most of the premium-quality and
good standard white and red table wines of California. The less
productive slopes and hillsides vineyards cannot compete in growing
grapes for standard wines, because of lower yield, but, nevertheless,
can produce favorable yields of fine wines'' (pgs. 66-67).
The petitioner states that, ``(s)ince November of 1987, Light
Vineyard of Redwood Valley (Latitude 39 degrees 18.32', Longitude 123
degrees 12.46', elevation 800') has maintained a U.S. Weather Bureau
standard weather station including the following instruments: maximum/
minimum thermometer, Belfort Recording Hygrothermograph, Belfort
Recording Pyranograph, Totalizing Anemometer, Evaporation Pan, and Rain
Gauge. Readings are taken daily, and data are transmitted monthly to
the California Irrigation Management Information Service in
Sacramento.''
According to the petitioner, records from this station show that,
in the most recent eight year period, the ``Redwood Valley'' received
22% more rainfall than the Ukiah Valley. The petitioner provided a
table comparing the monthly totals for rainfall in ``Redwood Valley''
and Ukiah, for the eight year period for which they have maintained
records. The table and charts were prepared from data gathered from the
Light Vineyard Weather station which meets U.S. Weather Bureau
standards. According to these records, the average total monthly
rainfall in Ukiah Valley was 32.48 inches during the period of July
through June compared to an average total of 39.62 inches for ``Redwood
Valley'' during the same period. The petitioner also provided a graph
comparing the annual rainfall values for ``Redwood Valley'' and Ukiah
Valley averaged over a six year period. The graph indicates that the
precipitation values for ``Redwood Valley'' were consistently higher
than those for Ukia Valley over the six year period measured.
According to the petitioner, ``Redwood Valley's'' temperatures are
several degrees lower in daily lows than Ukiah Valley. The petitioner
states that, ``(t)his accounts for the lower growing degree day totals
in Redwood Valley and its placement in Region II. So, although Redwood
Valley may reach daily high temperatures similar to the Ukiah area,
because of cooler nights there remains a longer morning cool period.
The petitioner also provided a chart comparing monthly average
temperatures for the two areas averaged over a six year period.
This chart supports the petitioner's contentions regarding average
maximum and minimum temperatures.
Proposed Boundaries
The proposed ``Redwood Valley'' viticultural area is located in
east central Mendocino County, California. The proposed boundaries of
the viticultural area can be found on four U.S. Geological Survey
Quadrangle Maps labeled, ``Redwood Valley, Calif.'' 1960, photorevised
1975, ``Ukiah, Calif.'' 1958, photorevised 1975, ``Laughlin Range,
Calif.'' 1991 and, ``Orr Springs, California, provisional edition''
1991. All are 7.5 minute series maps. It should be noted that the
entire eastern boundary of the proposed ``Redwood Valley'' viticultural
area abuts the western boundary of the Potter Valley viticultural area.
Public Participation--Written Comments
ATF requests comments from all interested persons. Comments
received on or before the closing date will be carefully considered.
Comments received after that date will be given the same consideration
if it is practical to do so. However, assurance of consideration can
only be given to comments received on or before the closing date.
ATF will not recognize any submitted material as confidential and
comments may be disclosed to the public. Any material which the
commenter considers to be confidential or inappropriate for disclosure
to the public should not be included in the comments. The name of the
person submitting a comment is not exempt from disclosure.
Comments may be submitted by facsimile transmission to (202) 927-
8602, provided the comments: (1) Are legible; (2) are 8\1/2\'' x 11''
in size, (3) contain a written signature, and (4) are three pages or
less in length. This limitation is necessary to assure reasonable
access to the equipment. Comments sent by FAX in excess of three pages
will not be accepted. Receipt of FAX transmittals will not be
acknowledged. Facsimile transmitted comments will be treated as
originals.
Any person who desires an opportunity to comment orally at a public
hearing on the proposed regulation should submit his or her request, in
writing, to the Director within the 45-day comment period. The
Director, however, reserves the right to determine, in light of all
circumstances, whether a public hearing will be held.
Paperwork Reduction Act
The provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, Pub. L. 96-
511, 44 U.S.C. Chapter 35, and its implementing regulations, 5 CFR part
1320, do not apply to this notice because no requirement to collect
information is proposed.
Regulatory Flexibility Act
It is hereby certified that this proposed regulation will not have
a significant impact on a substantial number of small entities. The
establishment of a viticultural area is neither an endorsement nor
approval by ATF of the quality of wine produced in the area, but rather
an identification of an area that is distinct from surrounding areas.
ATF believes that the establishment of viticultural areas
[[Page 46407]]
merely allows wineries to more accurately describe the origin of their
wines to consumers, and helps consumers identify the wines they
purchase. Thus, any benefit derived from the use of a viticultural area
name is the result of the proprietor's own efforts and consumer
acceptance of wines from that region.
Accordingly, a regulatory flexibility analysis is not required
because the proposal, if promulgated as a final rule, is not expected
(1) to have significant secondary, or incidental effects on a
substantial number of small entities; or (2) to impose, or otherwise
cause a significant increase in the reporting, recordkeeping, or other
compliance burdens on a substantial number of small entities.
Executive Order 12866
It has been determined that this proposed regulation is not a
significant regulatory action as defined by Executive Order 12866.
Accordingly, this proposal is not subject to the analysis required by
this executive order.
