Wine Landscape and Architecture
Bergwater Wines combines winegrowing with larger undeveloped areas. A 2017 description mentions three farms and describes most of the land as a conservation area.
The winery was designed by John Whitton. Natural materials were intended to help the building blend into its surroundings; at the same time, its design refers to Prince Albert’s Victorian history. The winery therefore offers an architectural point of interest alongside its wine.
Arrange Your Visit in Advance
If you are planning a wine tasting or a visit, ask the winery about current options and dates before setting off. The location of the winery does not guarantee free access to vineyards or conservation areas.
