Tasting of Rieslings from the Association of Winemakers of the Dunajov Hills

Další popis

At the beginning of a busy block of autumn tastings, the winemakers from the Dunajov Hills will present their main variety - Riesling. The Dunajov Hills Winegrowers' Association is an open association of winegrowers from the municipalities of Březí u Mikulova and Dolní Dunajovice, who produce wine from grapes grown in the cadastre of these two villages. The basic idea for the creation of the association was the desire to connect winemakers from the two wine-growing villages who draw on the unique terroir of the surrounding Danube hills and to provide visitors to the villages of Březí u Mikulova and Dolní Dunajovice with a full-fledged, predominantly wine-growing experience and a comprehensive and professional service at a high level. Another objective is the joint promotion of these wine-growing villages, the cooperating winemakers and mainly their excellent wines.
Dunajovské hills (Dunajovické hills, Dunajovické vrchy), a national natural monument extending into the area of the municipalities of Dolní Dunajovice, Březí u Mikulova, Brod nad Dyjí and Dobré pole, cannot compete in size with the neighbouring "big" Pálava. Qualitatively, however, it represents an equally interesting environment for growing grapes. The subsoil here consists of Tertiary marine sediments, mainly calcareous claystones and sandstones, which are sometimes overlain by loess. Thanks to this unique soil, the wines from the Dunajovské Hills have a unique and unmistakable character. The winemakers of this association can grow wines in the cadastre of the municipality of Dolní Dunajovice on the vineyards of Dunajovský vrch, Zimní vrch, Pod Slunným vrchem, Plotny, Mlynská, Kraví hora and in the cadastre of the municipality of Březí on the vineyards of Liščí vrch and Ořechová hora.
In this association of winemakers there are wineries very well known and less known to us, but here they are all equal. This association includes the Košulič winery, the Matula winery, the František Hlaváč winery, the Kern winery, the Kňourek winery, the Martin Šebesta winery, the Volařík winery, the Mlýnek winery, the Mikrosvín winery, the Baláž winery, the Šoman winery, the Tichý winery, the Zámečník winery, the Kadrnka winery and the Entrée winery.
