Set in Pemberton’s premier wine growing region amidst towering karri forest, Silkwood’s 24 hectare vineyard is blessed with gravelly soils and cool, even temperatures during the ripening periods. The prevailing temperate climate and cool ripening temperatures make Pemberton a premium cool-climate wine region. It was these characteristics that sealed the decision to establish the Silkwood Estate vineyards at this site in 1998, focusing on the flagship Pinot Noir, Riesling and Sauvignon Blanc varietals.
