(9) Proceed west on County Road 23 for approximately 500 feet to an unnamed light duty road known locally as County Road 85;
(10) Proceed south on County Road 85 until the road ends and continue south in a straight line to the T9N-T10N section line;
(11) Then west on the T9N-T10N section line to the Napa-Yolo County line;

§ 9.177   Alexandria Lakes.
(a) Name. The name of the viticultural area described in this section is “Alexandria Lakes”.
(b) Approved maps. The appropriate maps for determining the boundary of the Alexandria Lakes viticultural area are four United States Geological Survey 1:24,000 scale topographic maps. They are titled:
(1) Alexandria West, Minn., 1966, revised 1994.
(2) Alexandria East, Minn., 1966, revised 1994.
(3) Lake Miltona East, Minn., 1969.
(4) Lake Miltona West, Minn., 1969.
(c) Boundary. The Alexandria Lakes viticultural area is located in Douglas County, Minnesota. The boundary of the Alexandria Lakes viticultural area is as described below:
(1) The beginning point is on the Alexandria West, Minn. map between Lake Carlos and Lake Darling at benchmark (BM) 1366, which is an unmarked bridge on County Road 11, known as the Carlos-Darling Bridge. From this point the boundary line continues—
(2) Along the Carlos-Darling bridge and then northeasterly along the western shore of Lake Carlos on to the Alexandria East, Minn. map; then
(3) Along the shoreline until the point where the Lake Carlos shoreline parallels an unlabeled road known as County Road 38; then
(4) North along County Road 38 until it intersects with an unlabeled road known as County Road 62; then
(5) North along County Road 62 on to the Lake Miltona, East, Minn. map and then on to an unlabeled road known as Buckskin Road; then
(6) North on Buckskin Road to the point at BM 1411; then
(7) North from BM 1411 in a straight line to the south shoreline of Lake Miltona; then
(8) Generally west along the south shoreline of Lake Miltona onto the Lake Miltona West, Minn. map until the southern shoreline parallels an unlabeled road known as Krohnfeldt Drive; then
(9) South and then west along Krohnfeldt Drive until it intersects with an unlabeled road known as County Road 34; then
(10) South along County Road 34 until the point where County Road 34 runs parallel to Lake Ida's eastern shoreline; then
(11) South along Lake Ida's eastern shoreline, then onto the Alexandria West, Minn. map to the point where two unlabeled roads known as Burkey's Lane and Sunset Strip Road intersect; then
