## Abstract

This Treasury decision establishes the 29,914-square mile "Upper Mississippi River Valley" viticultural area in portions of southeast Minnesota, southwest Wisconsin, northwest Illinois, and northeast Iowa. We designate viticultural areas to allow vintners to better describe the origin of their wines and to allow consumers to better identify wines they may purchase.
