Bell Mountain is a distinct AVA in Gillespie County, nested within Texas Hill Country.
Bell Mountain identifies a smaller growing area within the broad Texas Hill Country appellation. Its geographical relationship matters: a Bell Mountain wine comes from a more specific area than a wine identified only with Texas Hill Country. The area has granitic soils. The reviewed evidence does not support an up-to-date list of its leading grapes, so no regional variety ranking is supplied.
