Five Points Vineyard is in the northwestern bench of the Eola-Amity Hills AVA. The cool Pacific breezes coming through the Van Duzer corridor to the EAH in the summer months help maintain a good balance of fruit and acid (slow down plant respiration and preserve acid). Some of the best Pinot Noir and Chardonnay in the WV are coming from this area.
We have a riparian area running through the vineyard, which results in Southeast and Northwest facing slopes. The riparian area provides wildlife habitat and adds to the property’s biodiversity. Like most vineyards in the WV, we are dry farmed.
Our focus is to grow grapes of exceptional quality that will be used primarily for small production wines.
2023 was our first harvest. We yielded 12.8 tons, which was 1.3 tons per acre. We sold most of the fruit, and kept some to make wine under the Five Points Vineyard label. Our first release will be later in 2024.
