Silver Lake
Silver Lake draws from Columbia Valley's warm, dry climate to craft wines centered on white varietals. The winery's Roza Hills Vineyard Reserve Late Harvest Sauvignon Blanc—rated 92 by prestige critics—captures the region's ability to ripen Sauvignon Blanc to full aromatic intensity while maintaining the variety's characteristic acidity. A Late Harvest Riesling and Reserve Chardonnay round out the portfolio, both from the same vineyard source. Wine Enthusiast and Wine Advocate have assessed the range. The Columbia Valley appellation, spanning eastern Washington's broad plateau, provides the continental conditions that define the region's white wine character: cool nights that preserve freshness against warm days that build ripeness.
