DiVita Home Finance helps buyers finance vineyard properties and rural estates in Boonville and the Anderson Valley.
Boonville’s Wine Country Setting
Boonville sits at about 1,000 feet elevation in a valley where coastal fog meets the warmer inland air — creating a natural temperature modulator that makes Anderson Valley perfect for Pinot Noir and Burgundian varieties. Properties near Boonville include:
• Estate vineyards on the valley floor and surrounding hillsides
• Boutique winery operations with tasting rooms and production facilities
• Rural residential properties on larger parcels with agricultural zoning
• Properties in the Anderson Valley Brewing Company’s cultural orbit

For buyers who value authenticity over amenity, Boonville is one of California’s most compelling wine country destinations.

What is Boontling?
Boontling is a unique slang language invented in the early 1900s by Boonville residents — partly for fun, partly to speak without outsiders understanding. Hundreds of unique words and phrases exist, and some are still used by longtime Boonville residents today. It’s one of California wine country’s most delightful local quirks.
What wine varietals grow best in Boonville?
Pinot Noir and Chardonnay are Anderson Valley’s benchmarks, but Boonville-area vineyards also excel at Gewürztraminer, Pinot Gris, Riesling, and sparkling wine base varieties. The cool climate and long growing season make Boonville one of California’s finest sites for Burgundian and Alsatian varietals.
