The Texas High Plains AVA is an American Viticultural Area located in the Texas panhandle. The appellation is the second largest American Viticultural Area in Texas and covers an area of over 8000000 acres (32375 km2). Most of the vineyards are on flat terrain at elevations between 3000 feet (914 m) and 4000 feet (1219 m) above sea level. The Texas plains can be very dry so most vineyards are irrigated with water from the Ogallala Aquifer.
