We has a great Spring visit at the winery and will definitely be back. Gary is the owner and winemaker and was a very gracious host. We enjoyed the Chenin Blanc the most.The view of the valley is very nice and if we could have sit and enjoyed a glass together and soaked it in.
Great wines! Great view! Winter wonderland! Leavenworth is a beautiful small town to begin with and the experience at silvara embodies what leavenworth is all about! A relaxing place to let worries fade away as you sip a great glass of wine sitting by a warm fireplace overlooking a winter wonderland!!!! How does it get any better??? If you want to top off your vacation experience the right way you will certainly stop by too!!!!!
We are very sorry to hear you didn't have a pleasant experience on you last visit to Silvara. We hope you will come again and give us another chance to serve you. We do strive to give all our customers the best greetings and service.
My husband and I visited this fantastic winery today (August 21, 2014) and had a great time. The manager was very generous with his pours, and discussed at length each wine. Then we were fortunate enough to meet the owner/winemaker, Gary! He chatted with us for quite some time. The wines are absolutely wonderful and the view sets the perfect mood for wine tasting, whether you are inside or out. Be sure to visit them when you are in the vicinity, you, too, will be glad you did!We bought several bottles too.
We had a wonderful visit to Silvara yesterday with two other couples. The setting is so nice, above the highway with a lovely view of the trains going by in the distance, the hillside and the Wenatchee River. Gary went above and beyond for our tasting, giving us thoughtful answers to our questions and teaching us in an unpretentious, down-to-earth manner. We decided to purchase a bottle of the 60/40 and bought salami, crackers, and a couple of cheeses from the cold case on site. Gary plated it for us and even included some tasty local cherries. We sat outside, enjoying our wine and treats. Eventually, Gary came outside and joined us, telling us more about the history of the winery and his journey into winemaking. All arrows point to this winery for great product, generous hospitality and a beautiful setting.
Wonderful wine tasting experience just minutes east of Leavenworth. The outside grounds are beautiful, with a fire pit, and plenty of outside seating. Perfect for a picnic on a warm summer day.We went with a large group in April, and it was raining, so we tasted wines inside. The inside of the winery is spacious and rustic. We chatted with the owner, and enjoyed hearing about the tasty wines from a friendly woman from Vancouver, WA.There is a reasonable tasting fee and this place is dog friendly!If you are looking for a change of pace outside of Leavenworth, I highly recommend Silvara Winery.
If you are looking for a wide varieties of wines - this is not your place. If you are looking for some carefully crafted wines which have just been released and are unique to this winery - then you are in the right place. Silvara does not mass produce their wines and their distribution is limited - which makes it even more of a wonderful find. The staff is excellent - and they gave us the locations of two other wineries. Did I mention that their wines were wonderful? The facility is large, well appointed and has cheese and crackers available for sale. You could spend as little as a half hour - or a whole afternoon here, and you would not be disappointed. Go - it is worth your time.
Since moving here from a large city, it has been difficult to find a place that my husband and I can escape to for a little luxury. Silvara's tasting room has fulfilled that need and so much more. It has been our go-to place when we have friends and family visit. They swoon over the views from the tasting room and love getting to taste wines that they can't get anywhere else. My husband and I are just lucky enough to live close by, so we can indulge in our favorite wines of the valley anytime we please. I highly recommend stopping in here, meeting the wine maker himself, and enjoying some wine by the fire. If you're lucky enough to go when the weather is nice, sitting out on their manicured lawn and sipping wine over the wildflowers and orchards is a one of a kind experience.
Came into town to enjoy wine in the area and was pleasantly surprised by what Silvara Winery had to offer. The winery had a quality selection of wine for it being still a young winery. Pleasant service and it tasting experience. The tasting room is large and enjoyable, even with the colder season it was delightful to taste wine by the fire. The winery would be a wonderful location for Weddings and business meetings. Next time I’m visiting Leavenworth I will be certain to make Silvara Winery a consistent stop.
We sampled the wines, enjoyed the Chenin Blanc the most. We sat out in front enjoying our wine and a smoked cheddar. We bought two bottles of the Chenin Blanc.
