Texas Hill Country Ava Information

The Texas Hill Country AVA is an American Viticultural Area located in the Texas Hill Country north of San Antonio and west of Austin, Texas.[3] The appellation is the second largest American Viticultural Area, and covers an area of over 9,000,000 acres (36,422 km2). Despite the cultural influence of the local Texas German population, most of the grape varietals grown in the Texas Hill Country originate from France, Italy, or Spain rather than the cooler climate of Germany.[2][4]
