Title: Establishment of the West Sonoma Coast Viticultural Area 
Abstract:

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 141,846-acre "West Sonoma Coast" American viticultural area (AVA) in Sonoma County, California.  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.
