Local growers, local grapes.

The winery

What to expect

Silver Crest opened in 2018, founded by grape growers whose family vineyards reach back to the 1930s. It makes wines from its own and other local vineyards, including Riesling, Cabernet Franc and Dornfelder. Visitors can bring food, sit indoors or outside, and find the Riverview Park trail entrance a short walk down Bates Road.
