Situated in the exquisite Prince Albert Valley just outside the village of Prince Albert, Bergwater Vineyards comprise of 5 farms, totaling 3000 hectares of which 70 hectares of vineyards is established to date, the remainder of the land utilized as a nature reserve.

A moderate climate prevails throughout the growing season, with a southerly wind cooling down the valley at night. This sharp drop in temperatures enables the grapes to preserve the rich aromas naturally embodied during the sunny days. The vineyards are planted at an altitude of 700 to 900 meters above sea level on an array of new soils and different slopes, optimizing the location of the different cultivars. These conditions along with the quality of the natural spring water contribute to producing wines of exceptional quality and character.

The winery under construction is the first in the Great Karoo. Designed by a well-known local architect Mr. John Whitton, the aim is to blend in with the beautiful environment using natural materials where possible and to reflect the Victorian history of Prince Albert. The cellar will have the capacity to process 1500 tons of grapes, large enough to accommodate all the produce from the Prince Albert Valley.
