Pálava
Pálava, 2019
About winemaker
The winery was established in 2012 as a continuation of more than fifty years of family winemaking and viticulture. The main motto of the winery is a gentle approach to the vineyard and the wine, with an emphasis on the character of each variety. The vineyards are in the wine-growing village of Novosedly and Mikulov. The winery with tasting room, accommodation and summer restaurant is in the historical centre of Mikulov. The wine production was extended in 2020 with the addition of a historic cellar on Zlámalova Street, where wine is processed with modern technology, directly under St. Kopeček.
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.
