About winemaker
Most often we create stories of white grape varieties, from the traditional Sylvanian Green, through typical aromatic varieties to specific varieties such as Hibernal, blue varieties are represented by Zweigeltrebe, Pinot Noir and Dornfelder, either in red or pink, depending on what the character of the vintage prompts us to do. Current production is 15,000 bottles. The specialty of our winery is battonage, or blending on fine lees. We ferment both with noble yeasts and spontaneously.
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.
