Ponzi

USA
Established in 1970, Ponzi Vineyards was a pioneer in showcasing the excellence of the Willamette Valley which is a now very considered a world-class wine region. Founders Dick and Nancy Ponzi moved to the Willamette Valley in the late 1960s with a dream to produce world-class, cool climate-grown Pinot Noir. The first vines were planted in 1968, when there were only a small number of other wineries in the region, forever solidifying their place as Oregon wine innovators. The pioneering spirit of Ponzi Vineyards lives on through their continued intention of producing the purest expressions of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grown in the renown Laurelwood District AVA. Guided by a combination of traditional and modern winemaking techniques they prefer minimal intervention, as this allows the unique terroir to shine through, creating distinctive wine that reflect the region. Ponzi Vineyards sustainably farms nearly 150 acres, all but 10 are found within the boundaries of the Laurelwood District AVA in the beautiful rolling hills of the Chehalem Mountains. They proudly hold the prestigious LIVE Certified Sustainable designation, recognized globally as one of the highest standards for sustainable viticulture and enology. Ponzi was acquired by the venerated Champagne producer Bollinger in 2021, generating new energy and opportunity.
