York Mountain AVA

The York Mountain AVA is an American Viticultural Area located in San Luis Obispo County, California. It is part of the larger Central Coast AVA, located on the eastern side of the Santa Lucia Mountains, west of Paso Robles AVA. The mountainous AVA region has most vineyards planted at an elevation of about 1,500 feet (457 m). York Mountain is cooler and wetter than Paso Robles being just 8 miles (13 km) from the Pacific Ocean. York Mountain gained AVA status in 1984 as a result of a successful petition by the York family who have owned the York Mountain Winery, since its establishment in 1882 by Andrew York, a British immigrant.
