About winemaker
The winery ZD Němčičky manages a total of 250 ha of land, of which 92 ha of its own vineyards, 118 ha of arable land and 40 ha of orchards. The winery underwent a major change in 2015 when it began producing only bottled wines, since when it has won more than 400 awards worldwide. It offers wines from the Classic range, fresh, juicy wines with beautiful primary fruit aromas; the Premium range, full-bodied, ripe wines with ageing potential; and more recently the Grand Vins range, big, opulent wines that have been aged in barrel.
Basic characteristics of wine
Pálava was cultivated by Ing. Josef Veverka by crossing the varieties Gewürztraminer and Müller Thurgau. Probably the best results are achieved mainly in the Mikulov subregion, in the vicinity of the municipalities of Perná, Pavlov or Bulhary, then in Lechovice, Popice or Čejkovice. Pálava is often automatically perceived as a sweet wine, i.e. with a higher residual sugar but this is not always the rule. In the dry version we discover the charm and beauty of this variety.
