Atlantic Seaboard Wine Association Promoting the Wines of the Eastern US The Atlantic Seaboard Wine Association ASWA promotes wine from the eastern United States. Established in 1973 as the Vinifera Wine Growers Association we continue to advocate for planting worldclass vinifera wine grapes and quality hybrid and native varietals producing outstanding commercial wines and growing a thriving wine industry along the eastern seaboard. Our mission is to increase awareness of the fine wines of the Atlantic seaboard through trade and consumer education. ASWA liaises with national state and regional wine organizations to identify opportunities to highlight the wines and winemakers working on the Atlantic Coast.
