About winemaker

The roots of the current Spěvák family winery date back to the 1930s. Father František's small-scale winemaking gradually grew, but from the 1970s until 1999 the winery produced only cask wines. This changed with the arrival of a new generation represented by Milan Spěvák, who continued the tradition with new ambitions. We began to focus on bottled, quality and attribute wines and in 2001 we expanded our production and storage facilities in a historic cellar that is more than a hundred years old.

Basic characteristics of wine

Dornfelder is a German variety and it is still a very important blue variety. However, we also meet it more and more often in our country where it is very successful thanks to optimal climatic conditions. In our country it is grown mainly in Moravia, it thrives most in the Velkopavlovice, Mikulov and Slovácko regions.
