TTB Establishes the Upper Cumberland American Viticultural Area

This week we formally established the Upper Cumberland American Viticultural Area (AVA). This approximately 2,186,689-acre AVA is located in Middle Tennessee. The Upper Cumberland AVA is not located within, nor does it contain, any established AVA. See Docket No. TTB–2023–0006 on Regulations.gov for all documents and public comments related to this rulemaking.

Bottlers who wish to label their wines with this new AVA as an appellation of origin must obtain a new Certificate of Label Approval (COLA) for the label, even if the currently approved label already contains another AVA appellation of origin. Please do not submit COLA applications for labels using the new AVA until June 14, 2024, the effective date of this final rule.

You also may view the boundaries of the newly-established Upper Cumberland AVA on our AVA Map Explorer.

TTB Accepts Offers in Compromise

We have accepted offers in compromise from ABC Rifle Company and EcoGreen Industries, LLC for alleged tax violations.
