(a) Name. The name of the viticultural area described in this section is “Escondido Valley.”
(b) Approved map. The appropriate map for determining the boundaries of the “Escondido Valley” viticultural area is 1 U.S.G.S. (scale 1:250,000) map. It is titled Fort Stockton, Texas, 1954 (revised 1973).
(c) Boundary. The Escondido Valley viticultural area is located in Pecos County, Texas. The boundary is as follows:
(1) The beginning point is the intersection of Interstate Route 10 (I–10) and an intermittent stream approximately 18 miles east of the city of Fort Stockton (standard reference GE3317 on the Fort Stockton, Texas, U.S.G.S. map);
(2) From the beginning point, the boundary follows I–10 in an easterly direction approximately 9 miles until a southbound trail diverges from I–10 just past the point where it intersects horizontal grid line 2 of square GE on the Fort Stockton, Texas, U.S.G.S. map;
(3) The boundary then follows the trail in a generally southeasterly direction about 5 miles until it intersects the 3000 foot contour line;
(4) The boundary follows the 3000 foot contour line in a generally westerly direction approximately 17 miles;
(5) The boundary continues to follow the 3000 foot contour line as it turns sharply northwest, but diverges from the contour line when the contour line turns south again;
(6) From the point where it diverges from the contour line, the boundary follows a straight north-northwesterly line as it returns to the beginning point at I–10.
