This final rule establishes the 4,800-square mile "Indiana Uplands" American viticultural area in all or portions of 19 counties in south-central Indiana. This final rule also modifies the boundary of the existing "Ohio River Valley" viticultural area to eliminate a potential overlap with the new Indiana Uplands viticultural area. The modification decreases the size of the Ohio River Valley viticultural area by 1,530 square miles. TTB undertook this rulemaking in response to a petition from local wine industry members. TTB designates viticultural areas to allow vintners to better describe the origin of their wines and to allow consumers to better identify the wines they may purchase. This final rule is effective on March 7m, 2013.
