In 1968, shortly after Die Bergkelder cellar was completed, the first vintages of the much loved Fleur du Cap range were launched. Under the watchful eye of the manager of wine production, Dr Julius Laszlo, Die Bergkelder continued to follow the philosophy of smaller volume, superior wine. In 1979, Die Bergkelder introduced maturation of quality wine in small casks of new French oak and in 1998, it launched the reserve range of Fleur du Cap Unfiltered wines, known for their superior quality.
