Viticulture in Georgia occurs primarily in the Northern Part of the state, in the southernmost parts of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Elevations between 400 and 670 meters above sea level provide a suitable environment for grapevines and temper the heat and humidity usually associated with Georgia's Climate. Wine producers in Virginia and North Carolina are also located in the Blue Ridge Mountains.
