## Abstract

The Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) establishes the approximately 198-square mile "Middleburg Virginia" viticultural area in Loudoun and Fauquier Counties in northern Virginia. TTB designates viticultural areas to allow vintners to better describe the origin of their wines and to allow consumers to better identify wines they may purchase.
