The Rogue Valley AVA is an American Viticultural Area located in southern Oregon. The federal government approved this appellation in 1991. It is entirely contained within the larger Southern Oregon AVA and includes the drainage basin of the Rogue River and several tributaries including the Illinois River the Applegate River and Bear Creek. Most wineries in the region are found in the valleys formed by one of these three tributaries rather than along the Rogue River itself.
