Update Blocks, Varieties, and Acres (BVAs) and Gallons

The Blocks, Varieties, and Acres (BVAs - vineyards) and Gallons (wineries) listed in the database will appear on your certification letter this summer to show what you have certified.

These details are also used to calculate your certification invoice.

If your BVAs and Gallons have changed from last year, you will need to update them so your certification letter and invoice for this year are accurate.

This tutorial will show you how.
