Locations by Dave Phinney CA-9
A diverse set of aromas present themselves—blueberry compote, blackberry, brambly raspberry and a touch of licorice and tomato leaf. The palate is silky smooth, almost slippery, with bursting flavors of ripe strawberry, red plum, kirsch and graham cracker. Fine tannins and a long structured finish round out the wine.
Nose: The nose is complex and inviting, with aromas of black fruits, chocolate, and blackberry compote. There are also hints of spice, earth, and leather.
Palate: The palate is dense and rich, with flavors of black fruits, chocolate, and spice. The tannins are well-integrated and the wine has a long, lingering finish.
Finish: The finish is long and lingering, with flavors of black fruits, chocolate, and spice. The tannins are smooth and the wine leaves a pleasant warmth on the palate.

Dave Phinney
The history of Dave Phinney ‘the Winemaker’, dates back to 1995 when, Dave took a friend up on an offer and went to Florence, Italy to spend a semester abroad. During that time, he was introduced to wine, how it was made, and had to know more. A few more years of university led to graduation and eventually a job at Robert Mondavi Winery in 1997 as a temporary harvest worker. Deciding that if he was going to work this hard, it would eventually have to be for himself, so in 1998 he founded his first wine brand with two tons of zinfandel and not much else.
He spent the next decade making wine for others as well as himself and has now grown multiply companies into internationally renown brands. His international ambition with Locations Wine has led him to Spain, France, Italy, Portugal, Corsica, Argentina and other locations around the globe. The vision here is to create the best possible wine that represents its Location across wine regions of the world. The intent is to make wine less complicated and remove restrictions that limit freedom and sense of expression. As such Locations purposefully blends across appellations to produce wine removing restrictions held within traditional winemaking circles. An ambitious project where innovation and freedom meet on a global journey of discovery, exploring the worlds Locations through wine.
