Verde Valley AVA
The Verde Valley American Viticultural Area (AVA) is located in Yavapai County, in central Arizona, approximately 100 miles north of the Phoenix metropolitan area. The Verde River flows through the center of the Verde Valley from the northwest to the southeast. Steep foothills surround the valley. The northern boundary separates the AVA from the Coconino National Forest, primarily following the 3,800-foot elevation contour because the terrain becomes too steep for cultivation above that elevation.
