1513-AC42 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 Candy Mountain Viticultural Area and Modification of the Yakima Valley Viticultural Area

In response to a petition submitted by (or on behalf of) an industry member, the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau proposes to establish the 815-acre Candy Mountain American viticultural area (AVA) in Benton County, Washington, and to modify the boundary of the established Yakima Valley AVA. 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.
