Region:


Georgia

Georgia is one of the most diverse winegrowing regions in the southeastern United States. Spanning from the Appalachian Mountains to the coastal plains, Georgia's American Viticultural Areas (AVAs) cover a rich array of terroir. The warm, humid climate plays a major role in shaping Georgia's vineyards, with cool mountain air and coastal breezes tempering the daytime heat and allowing grapes to ripen slowly and fully. Cooler-climate grape varieties thrive in the northern highlands, while further south, bigger, bolder wines prevail. Georgia's growing wine industry is crafting exceptional wines that reflect the state's unique and dynamic environmental conditions.
