Based in Philo, California, the Anderson Valley Winegrowers Association is a small non-profit formed in 2005 to support and promote the Anderson Valley as a wine region. It brings together winery members, grape growers, and related businesses to showcase cool-climate wines such as Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, sparkling wines, and Alsatian varieties that reflect the area's terroir. The organization also aims to protect local farmland and natural resources for future generations and operates events, education for consumers and media, and promotion of the valley as a wine tourism destination. In the industry, AVWA serves as a regional advocate and promoter within the Anderson Valley AVA, which was established in 1983. It seeks to strengthen community ties and support local businesses connected to wine tourism and agriculture. A recent development is its participation in the 26th Annual Anderson Valley Pinot Noir Festival, held in May 2025 in Philo, illustrating ongoing festival programming.
