Our Vineyard

Silverback Vineyard’s story began in 2014 with Pinot Noir vines planted around the farmhouse. That first planting grew into a vision for an estate where wine, agriculture, and the natural landscape come together.

Five Varieties. Fifty Acres.

At approximately 500 feet above sea level in the rolling Silverton hills, our vineyard grows in volcanic soils—primarily Jory and Nekia, with bands of Salkum. Steady midday breezes and later-ripening fruit help shape the character of our estate wines.

Our fifty acres are planted to five varieties:

• Pinot Noir · 777, Pommard, Mt. Eden, Swan, and 4407 clones
• Chardonnay · 548, 76, 95, 96, and Draper clones
• Pinot Gris
• Gamay Noir
• Pinot Blanc

Sustainable Farming

Caring for the land includes protecting the habitats that help it thrive. In 2022, Silverback Vineyard obtained LIVE Certification—Low Input Viticulture & Enology—furthering our commitment to sustainable farming and pollinator habitat. The program partners with Salmon-Safe and Bee Friendly Farming.

A Living Landscape

Our vineyard is part of an approximately 600-acre working estate, with surrounding fields rotating between clover and grasses. Our agricultural neighborhood includes hazelnut orchards, berry fields, and other seed crops.

In spring and summer, pollinators bring the fields to life. The estate also serves as a wildlife corridor, with no perimeter fencing, allowing animals to roam freely across our land. It’s a reminder that our vineyard is part of something larger.
