1513-AC33 201804 Unified Agenda of Federal Regulatory and Deregulatory Actions 1513 Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau TTB 1500 Department of the Treasury TREAS Establishment of the Dahlonega Plateau Viticultural Area

In response to a petition for rulemaking submitted by (or on behalf of) an industry member, the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau proposes to establish the 133-square mile Dahlonega Plateau American viticultural area (AVA) in Lumpkin and White Counties, Georgia.  The use of AVA names on wine labels, which is voluntary, allows vintners to better describe the origin of their wine and consumers to better identify the wines they may purchase.
