The Columbia Gorge AVA is an American Viticultural Area which includes land surrounding the Columbia River Gorge straddling the border between Oregon and Washington. Due to the unique climate and geography found in the gorge this AVA exhibits a wide range of terroir in a relatively small region; it is marketed as a world of wine in 40 miles.
