Arrow: 10 Things You Didn't Know About Stephen Amell

After a hard days night running around Starling City and beating up bad guys, Amell probably deserves the chance to relax with a glass of wine. So much so that he started his own company. Nockingpoint Wines was started in 2013 by Amell and his friend Andrew Harding, producing wine from a vineyard in Walla Walla, Washington. It was on a road trip from LA to Oakland that Amell visited wine-country for the first time, and led to the pair dreaming up Nockingpoint. The company takes its name from an archery term, and there are further references in the names of the wines, which include Wicked Aim, New Bow, and Vigilante Red among the nine varieties offered, while some of the labels were designed by DC Comics artist Jim Lee.
