Israel confiscated 470 dunams of land from the nearby Palestinian village of Ramin in order to construct Einav (and the accompanying bypass roads and military positions),[2] in addition to confiscating 20 dunams from Kafr al-Labad.[3]

Established in 1981 with the assistance of the Amana settlement organization, by 2022 it had a population of 1,062. The name of the village comes to remember the vineyards that used to be a feature of the surrounding areas.
