Wine Country and Architecture
Bergwater Wines combines wine-growing with larger areas of undeveloped land. A 2017 description mentions three farms and describes most of the land as 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 references Prince Albert’s Victorian history. Alongside the wine, the winery therefore offers an architectural point of interest.
Arrange Your Visit in Advance
If you are planning a wine tasting or a visit, contact the business before setting out to ask about current options and dates. The winery’s location does not guarantee free access to vineyards or conservation areas.
