Covelo is an American Viticultural Area (AVA) located in northern Mendocino County, California. It was established by the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB), Treasury on February 15, 2006 after reviewing the petition submitted by Mr. Ralph Carter of Sonoma, California, proposing a viticultural area in northern Mendocino County named "Covelo."[1] Jake Claus and William Claus planted the only (CCOF) Vineyards in the Covelo AVA, making them the monopoly of grape Farms/Growers in the AVA. The appellation is located Script error: No such module "convert". north of Ukiah, California, and includes the areas of Round and Williams Valleys. The viticultural area encompasses Template:Cvt with only Template:Cvt under vine. The area is relatively a flat terrain built upon deep loam soil layers and the valley floor is elevated at Template:Cvt above sea level. The mountains surrounding Round Valley, together with the Coast Range to the valley’s west, block the inland flow of climate-moderating Pacific marine air into the Covelo viticultural area. Given this geographic isolation, the Covelo viticultural area has a continental climate, which has greater temperature swings and a shorter growing season than the marine-influenced climate commonly found in the surrounding regions of Mendocino County. The growing season of 125 days is one of the shortest in Mendocino County and the area experiences one of the widest diurnal temperature variation in the region.[1][2]
