The Vibe

Entering Silkscarf feels like stepping into a private estate in the European countryside. The name "Silkscarf" refers to the gentle, warming breeze that flows through the valley, and that sense of grace is reflected in everything they do. The winery is peaceful and refined, offering an intimate alternative to the larger, busier estates. The patio is the star here, providing a quiet spot to soak in the views of the vines as they cascade down toward the lake.


The Experience

This is a place for slow sipping and real conversation. The tastings are guided by staff who truly know the history of every vine on the property. Because it is a small-batch producer, the experience feels personal and unhurried. It’s a favourite for couples and small groups of friends who want to appreciate the nuances of the wine without the crowds.


The Wine

Winemakers Roie and Ruth Kornman focus on quality over quantity, producing wines of remarkable elegance and finesse. Their reds, such as the Syrah-Viognier and Cabernet-Merlot, are celebrated for their structure and aging potential. The whites are equally impressive, often showing the crisp acidity and bright fruit typical of the Summerland bench. Every bottle is a reflection of twenty years of listening to the land.
