Title: Establishment of the Gabilan Mountains Viticultural Area 
Abstract:

In response to a petition for rulemaking submitted on behalf of industry members, the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau proposed to establish the 98,000-acre Gabilan Mountains American viticultural area (AVA) in Monterey and San Benito Counties in 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.
