Winery Josef Padalík

Our family winery is located in the picturesque village of Bořetice in a group of cellars below Kraví hora in the centre of the so-called Free Republic of Kraví hora on the route of the Blue Mountains cycling trail. We farm less than a hectare of vineyards and all the work on the vineyard and then processing in the cellar is done only by our family and I, as cellar master, give all the wines their final form. I started winemaking at the age of 14 when I inherited the care of our family farm. We produce our own grapes, only the appellation wines, using the traditional method, whereby in the first year the wines are aged only in wooden barrels and only after this aging are bottled and distributed in limited exclusive quantities to all those who can appreciate this process. Our wines can be tasted and purchased mainly in the hotel Kraví hora, which is located next to our cellar. If you have to travel through Hustopeče, you can buy them nonstop at the Shell petrol station.
