American Viticultural Area in California
About Napa Valley
Napa Valley is an American Viticultural Area (AVA) in Napa County, California. It was established as the nation's second, the state and county's initial appellation on January 28, 1981 by the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF), Treasury after reviewing the 1978 petition submitted by the Napa Valley Vintners and the Napa Valley Grape Growers Association proposing the viticultural area named "Napa Valley." The appellation is internationally renowned as one of the world's premier wine regions and includes all of Napa County except the portion northeast of Putah Creek and Lake Berryessa. Napa's viticulture history dates back to the nineteenth century, and its modern premium wine production reemerged in the 1960s. The combination of Mediterranean climate, geography, and geology of the region is conducive to growing quality wine grapes.
