Bergsig Winery is a true family business, meaning winemaking expertise is passed down from generation to generation. Each member contributes something, ensuring the quality continues to improve over the decades. This has resulted in Bergsig's exceptionally high price-quality ratio; so high that many wineries in the region envy its vineyards. And there are quite a few. A whopping 250 hectares are owned by the company, a substantial amount even by South African standards. The lion's share of the vineyards is situated along the mighty Breede River, which is vital to viticulture. Without this powerful, meandering waterway, the success of Bergsig wines would never have been so great.
A Gewürztraminer in all its uniqueness. As soon as the bottle cap is unscrewed, a lush aroma rises almost immediately. An aromatic palette of blooming roses, fresh lychee, and a hint of Turkish candied fruit tickles your nose. The perfumed character is typical of a Gewürztraminer. Bergsig proves beyond any doubt that Gewürztraminer can create perfect wines even outside Alsace. The spicy, soft, and pure flavor is a feast for the taste buds. Precisely because of its characteristic Gewürztraminer notes, Bergsig Gewürztraminer pairs perfectly with spicy and seasoned Asian dishes.
