The McMinnville AVA is located in Yamhill County, Oregon. It is entirely contained within the Willamette Valley AVA, roughly running from McMinnville to Sheridan. The AVA is one of few AVAs that is designated in part based on elevation, with vineyards required to be between 200 feet (61 m) and 1,000 feet (305 m) above sea level, where the soil and rock formations differ from surrounding areas.
