The
table below summarizes all approved American Viticultural Areas in descending
chronological order (newest to oldest) by their effectiveness dates. Clicking
on the hyperlinked name will query the U.S. government printing office
for the current regulation. Please be patient - it may take a few moments
for the page to load. Newer AVA's will not be in the GPO database - but
you can obtain additional information by going to the FILES section to
review the final rules that were published in the Federal Register. When
downloading PDF files on a Windows system, you will need to rename the
file. Please remember to use the "*.PDF" naming convention when
renaming the file so that the file can be properly associated with the
Acrobat reader.
