SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background on Viticultural Areas TTB Authority Section 105e of the Federal Alcohol Administration Act FAA Act, 27
U.S.C. 205e, authorizes the Secretary of the Treasury to prescribe regulations for the labeling of wine, distilled spirits, and malt beverages. The FAA Act provides that these regulations should, among other things, prohibit consumer deception and the use of misleading statements on labels and ensure that labels provide the consumer with adequate information as to the identity and quality of the product. The Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau TTB administers the FAA Act pursuant to section 1111d of the Homeland Security Act of 2002, codified at 6 U.S.C. 531d. The Secretary has delegated the functions and duties in the administration and enforcement of these provisions to the TTB Administrator through Treasury Order 12001, dated December 10, 2013
superseding Treasury Order 12001, dated January 24, 2003.
Part 4 of the TTB regulations 27 CFR
part 4 authorizes TTB to establish definitive viticultural areas and regulate the use of their names as appellations of origin on wine labels and in wine advertisements. Part 9 of the TTB
regulations 27 CFR part 9 sets forth standards for the preparation and submission to TTB of petitions for the establishment or modification of American viticultural areas AVAs and lists the approved AVAs.
Definition Section 4.25e1i of the TTB
regulations 27 CFR 4.25e1i defines a viticultural area for American wine as a delimited grape-growing region having distinguishing features, as described in part 9 of the regulations, and a name and a delineated boundary, as

established in part 9 of the regulations.
These designations allow vintners and consumers to attribute a given quality, reputation, or other characteristic of a wine made from grapes grown in an area to the wines geographic origin. The establishment of AVAs allows vintners to describe more accurately the origin of their wines to consumers and helps consumers to identify wines they may purchase. Establishment of an AVA is neither an approval nor an endorsement by TTB of the wine produced in that area.
Requirements Section 4.25e2 of the TTB
regulations 27 CFR 4.25e2 outlines the procedure for proposing an AVA
and provides that any interested party may petition TTB to establish a grapegrowing region as an AVA. Section 9.12
of the TTB regulations 27 CFR 9.12
prescribes standards for petitions for the establishment or modification of AVAs.
Petitions to establish an AVA must include the following:
Evidence that the area within the proposed AVA boundary is nationally or locally known by the AVA name specified in the petition;
An explanation of the basis for defining the boundary of the proposed AVA;
A narrative description of the features of the proposed AVA affecting viticulture, such as climate, geology, soils, physical features, and elevation, that make the proposed AVA distinctive and distinguish it from adjacent areas outside the proposed AVA boundary;
If the proposed AVA is to be established within, or overlapping, an existing AVA, an explanation that both identifies the attributes of the proposed AVA that are consistent with the existing AVA and explains how the proposed AVA is sufficiently distinct from the existing AVA and therefore appropriate for separate recognition;
The appropriate United States Geological Survey USGS maps showing the location of the proposed AVA, with the boundary of the proposed AVA clearly drawn thereon;
and A detailed narrative description of the proposed AVA boundary based on USGS map markings.
Goose Gap Petition TTB received a petition from Alan Busacca, on behalf of the Goose Gap Wine Growers Association, proposing to establish the Goose Gap AVA. The proposed AVA is located in Benton County, Washington, and lies entirely within the established Yakima Valley 27 CFR 9.69 and Columbia Valley 27
