             Subpart C_Approved American Viticultural Areas
 
Sec.  9.134  Oakville.

    (a) Name. The name of the viticultural area described in this 
section is ``Oakville.''
    (b) Approved maps. The appropriate maps for determining the boundary 
of the Oakville viticultural area are two U.S.G.S. 7.5 minute series 
topographical maps of the 1:24,000 scale:
    (1) ``Yountville Quadrangle, California,'' edition of 1951, 
photorevised 1968.
    (2) ``Rutherford Quadrangle, California,'' edition of 1951, 
photorevised 1968, photoinspected 1973.
    (c) Boundary. The Oakville viticultural area is located in Napa 
County in the State of California. The boundary is as follows:
    (1) Beginning on the Yountville quadrangle map at the point where 
the county road known as the Silverado Trail intersects Skellenger Lane, 
just outside the southwest corner of Section 12, Township 7 North (T.7 
N.), Range 5 West (R.5 W.), the boundary proceeds in a southwesterly 
direction in a straight line approximately 1.7 miles along Skellenger 
Lane, past its intersection with Conn Creek Road, to the point of 
intersection with the main channel of the Napa River (on the Rutherford 
quadrangle map);
    (2) Then south along the center of the river bed approximately .4 
miles to the point where an unnamed stream drains into the Napa River 
from the west;
    (3) Then along the unnamed stream in a generally northwesterly 
direction to its intersection with the west track of the Southern 
Pacific Railroad Track;
    (4) Then southeasterly along said railroad track 1,650 feet to a 
point which is approximately 435 feet north of the centerline of the 
entry road to Robert Mondavi Winery (shown on the map) to the southeast 
corner of Assessor's Parcel Number 27-250-14;
    (5) Thence southwesterly S 55[deg]06[min]28[sec] W for 3,869 feet 
along the common boundary between Assessor's Parcel Numbers 27-250-14 
and 27-280-50/51 to the southwest corner of Assessor's Parcel Number 27-
250-14;
    (6) Thence northwesterly N 40[deg]31[min]42[sec] W for 750 feet 
along the westerly property line of Assessor's Parcel Number 27-250-14;
    (7) Thence southwesterly S 51[deg]00[min] W in a straight line to 
the 500-foot contour line of the Mayacamas Range in the northwestern 
corner of Section 28, T.7 N., R.5 W.;
    (8) Then proceeding along the 500-foot contour line in a generally 
southeasterly direction through Sections 28, 29, 20, 29, 28, 29, 28, 33 
and 34 of T.7 N., R.5 W. and Section 3 of T.6 N., R.5 W. to its 
intersection with the unnamed stream known locally as Hopper Creek near 
the middle of Section 3;
    (9) Then along the unnamed stream (Hopper Creek) southeasterly and, 
at the fork in Section 3, northeasterly along the stream to the point 
where the stream intersects with the unnamed dirt road in the northwest 
corner of Section 2, T.6 N., R.5 W;
    (10) Then proceed in a straight line to the light duty road to the 
immediate northeast in Section 2, then along the light duty road in a 
northeasterly direction to the point at which the road turns 90 degrees 
to the left;
    (11) Then proceed along the light duty road 625 feet, then proceed 
northeasterly (N 40[deg]43[min] E) in a straight line 1,350 feet, along 
the northern property line of Assessor's Parcel Number 27-380-08 (not 
shown on the map), to State Highway 29, then continuing in a straight 
line approximately .1 mile to

the peak of the 320+ foot hill along the western edge of the Yountville 
Hills;
    (12) Then proceed due east to the second 300-foot contour line, then 
follow that contour line around the Yountville Hills to the north to the 
point at which the 300-foot contour line exits the Rutherford quadrangle 
map for the second time;
    (13) Then proceed (on the Yountville quadrangle map) in a straight 
line in a northeasterly direction approximately N 34[deg]30[min] E 
approximately 1,000 feet to the 90 degree bend in the unimproved dirt 
road shown on the map, then along that road, which coincides with a 
fence line (not shown on the map) to the intersection of Conn Creek and 
Rector Creek;
    (14) Then along Rector Creek to the northeast past the Silverado 
Trail to the Rector Reservoir spillway entrance, then proceed due north 
along the spillway of Rector Reservoir, then east and northeast along 
the shoreline of Rector Reservoir to the point where the first unnamed 
stream enters the Reservoir;
    (15) Thence follow the unnamed stream north and northeast to where 
it intersects an unimproved dirt road at the 1006-foot benchmark;
    (16) Then proceed in a straight line approximately .6 mile due west 
to the intersection of an unnamed stream, then follow said stream 
downslope to the 500-foot contour line, and along that contour line 
northwesterly through sections 18 and 13 to the intersection of the 
contour line with the southern border of Section 12 in T.7 N, R.5 W.;
    (17) Then proceed in a straight line in a westerly direction to the 
intersection of Skellenger Lane with the Silverado Trail, the point of 
beginning.
