The boundary, as written into law

Every American wine appellation is defined in federal regulations by walking the boundary landmark by landmark. The official description of this one begins:

(1) Beginning on the Patterson Quadrangle map, section 19, T6S, R8E, at the intersection of Interstate Highway 5 and Fink Road, proceed northwest for 4.25 miles along Interstate 5 to its junction with an unnamed light duty road in section 35, T5S, R7E; then (2) Follow the unnamed light duty road for approximately 0.45 miles, going east across the California Aqueduct and then north, to the road's intersection...

Boundary traced by the UC Davis Library from the official descriptions in federal regulation, and released under an open licence. Smoothed for manufacturing. Decorative use only, not for legal boundary determination.
