The Bell Mountain AVA is an American Viticultural Area located in Gillespie County, Texas.[4] It was the first designated wine area located entirely in the state of Texas, and covers an area of over 3,200 acres (5 sq mi). The appellation is entirely contained within the Texas Hill Country AVA, which was established nine years after Bell Mountain AVA.[2] As of 2006, there were nine wineries in the appellation.[5]
