2024 Silice Vyd Pinot 1.5L
Silice: A Bergström Wines Estate
Planted 2001 * Chehalem Mountains AVA * Elevation: 400ft
The French word for “Silica,” the shiny quartz in sand, Silice has the deepest sandy soils of any of our estate vineyards. This 20-acre vineyard sprawls over four different rolling sandy hillsides in the Chehalem Mountains AVA and most probably is a 60 million-year-old sand dune or beach. Silice sees all-day, unrelenting sun exposure, and strong winds that give the Pinot Noirs spicy powerful notes of gingerbread, cola and sassafras, with a mild savory and pretty floral lift while Silice Chardonnay is textural, bright, and delicate with a citrusy floral bouquet.

Winemaker Notes
Updated March 2026
Ethereal florals, spice, and bright, ripe dark fruits, with whole cluster stemminess and savoriness. Roses and bitters mingle with black tea, alongside dark chocolate, cinnamon, and pepper. The palate shows ripe, succulent, dark salted fruits (blackberry, marionberry), and cane fruits and pies, finishing with a note of saltwater taffy.
