Silverton Estate offers a selection of premium wines which appeal to a variety of palates and compliment various food styles. Our wines are also made to be enjoyed on their own.
Our Wines and Viticulture
We are passionate about producing the best quality wine and therefore we are passionate about producing the best quality grapes.
At Silverton Estate we firmly believe that “less is more” with shoot thinning, canopy management, leaf-plucking and bunch thinning being used to create an optimal crop. Open canopy methods ensure minimal disease pressure.
We ensure our practices are sustainable and within regulatory guidelines. We are also a proudly accredited member of SWNZ- Sustainable Winegrowing New Zealand.
Hand-picking is an option for select vintages to ensure minimal bruising and degradation of fruit.
