## Abstract

The Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) establishes the approximately 38,000-acre "Fountaingrove District" viticultural area in Sonoma County, California. The viticultural area lies entirely within the larger, multicounty North Coast viticultural area. 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.
