I love wine and often go to wineries for the experience and atmosphere. I was so excited to go to Silvan Ridge since I have heard amazing things, but unfortunately my time at Silvan Ridge was one of my worst experiences at a winery that I have ever had! A group of friends and I had made a reservation for Father’s Day, and I was so shocked by how horrible the customer service is here! The older, blonde, thin lady that was supposed to be helping us had only come to our table a total of 2 times for the whole 3 hours that we were there (it wasn’t like we were just sitting there, we were planning to spend a least a couple hundred dollars)…when this woman would come to our table, she would always look so annoyed and would make us feel very uncomfortable! We actually had to get up and find someone for help multiple times since apparently our lady was too bothered to give her tables any attention. I was understanding of all of this, and thought maybe this is just an off day for Silvan Ridge, however what had happened while we were leaving has made me never want to come back to Silvan Ridge ever again! We had to find someone else to close out our tab, that woman had black hair and was so lovely! However, as we were leaving the older thin blonde lady had stopped us as we were walking out to “confront” us about not paying our bill!!!! When we told her that we had already paid, she told us that she didn’t believe us, and we had to show her who closed out our tab…We were in the middle of the tasting room while this woman tried to accuse us of not paying in front of everyone! To make matters even worse, after we had explained that we had paid and even showed her who closed out our tab, THIS WOMAN FOLLOWED US OUT OF THE TASTING ROOM!! I have honestly never been so humiliated in my entire life…I will never be going back to Silvan Ridge, and I highly recommend supporting another winery that does not try to humiliate and acuse their customers of not paying a bill they have...
Read moreHad a wonderful visit to Silvan Ridge Winery on a sunny September Saturday afternoon with wife and our adult daughter while our son was getting settled in at UO. Decided on this winery based on previous good reviews and we all were happy we we did. Booking process was very easy and simple , good instructions ahead of time and everything at the winery was just great. All the staff we interacted was very friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. They have option for indoor/outdoor table seating and also nice picnic areas next to main seating area. If you need shade it's good to be aware that there is only limited shaded areas outside. That was not an issue for us, we enjoyed the afternoon sun - just bring sunglasses with you. We also ordered Cheese & Charcuterie Plate with our wine flights, which was a nice addition. Nice selection of different kind of wine flights to try. Our thinking before the day was that we'll try something else next time, but based on our experience we will very likely come back to Silvan Ridge also on our next time...
Read moreNestled in the stunning Oregon countryside, Silvan Ridge Winery stands out as the oldest winery in the area, and it truly lives up to its reputation. The winery offers a picturesque escape with hillside views that are absolutely breathtaking, providing the perfect backdrop for wine tasting.
During my visit, I had the pleasure of sampling a flight of red wines. While I’m always partial to a good Malbec and Tempranillo, it was their special red blend, Elizabeth's Red, that really stole the show. Not to be overlooked, the Chardonnay was equally impressive. It stood out with its crisp and refreshing taste, beautifully balanced and a wonderful complement to the reds.
Silvan Ridge Winery is a gem in the Oregon wine scene, combining spectacular views, a warm atmosphere, and exceptional wines. Whether you're a connoisseur or a casual wine lover, a visit here is highly recommended. The experience is as delightful as the...
