The Srebrna Góra Vineyard harks back to the history of Krakow viticulture in the early 10th Century - traces of which scientists have discovered at the Wawel Castle - and monastic wine making traditions. The first vineyard at Srebrna Góra, covering some 3 ares, and which dates back to 1660, survives to this day. The Srebrna Góra Vineyard came into existence in 2008.

The wines are created in the historic farm buildingsof the Camaldolese Monastery and are produced in modern stainless steel tanks. Some are then matured in contact with acacia or oak. The Gewürztraminer, Riesling, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Zweigelt are a nod to the thousand-year tradition of varietiescultivated in Galicia. Agnieszka Rousseau, a leading Polish enologist, watches over the whole production process. In 2012, the vineyard produced almost 16,000 bottles of wine for the market; in 2013 - 50,000; and in the following years - 70,000 bottles annually. Ultimately, production should increase to about 150 000 bottles per year. Each year, the Srebrna Góra Vineyard also produces a young wine, in recognition of the St. Martin tradition - the end of harvest and - the feast of the patron saint of winemakers.
