Triple Oak Vineyard is located in the small historic community of Oakland, Oregon, on a gentle southeast facing slope. It is tended by owner Betty Tamm and her husband Geoff Farahan. Betty Tamm, and her late husband Paul, planted the vineyard in the year 2000 and began producing wine commercially with the 2005 vintage. Paul was the principal of Triple Oak Vineyard but after his passing in 2013 Betty had to take over management. Paul was a perfectionist. His attention to detail carried over to the vineyard and he nurtured the vines resulting in grapes with a reputation as a quality product. Just two weeks after Paul died, his wines received their first major award; a gold medal for the 2010 Tempranillo at 2013 Greatest of the Grape. This recognition was followed with the top platinum medal at the 2014 G of G for the 2011 Tempranillo. Betty and Geoff are now maintaining that quality and sustain the excellence of the product and medals have followed every year.
