Rogaland lies in southwestern Norway, with North Sea coastline, the Boknafjord islands and inland mountains. Boknafjord separates the county's south from Ryfylke and Haugalandet. Bedrock changes from ancient Precambrian formations in the southeast to rocks of the Caledonian mountain chain in the northwest. At Hebnes in Ryfylke, farmers moved from pig farming to a vineyard in 2020. They planted their first vines in spring 2021 and received tasting guests in 2022. The farm stands where Vindafjorden, Sandsfjorden, Jelsafjorden and Nedstandsfjorden meet. Rogaland is a county rather than a legally delimited wine appellation.
