Department of the Treasury September 2, 2010 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau proposes to establish the 665-square mile ``Antelope Valley of the California High Desert'' viticultural area in Los Angeles and Kern Counties, California. We designate viticultural areas to allow vintners to better describe the origin of their wines and to allow consumers to better identify wines they may purchase. We invite comments on this proposed addition to our regulations.
