About winemaker
A SMALL FAMILY WINERY LOCATED IN MIKULOV AT THE FOOT OF THE NATURE RESERVE AND TUROLD HILL. SINCE 2006, THE WINERY HAS BEEN UNDER THE MANAGEMENT OF JAN VLK, WHO HAS FOLLOWED THE LEGACY OF HIS FATHER-IN-LAW, MIROSLAV SACEK, WHO FOUNDED THE COMPANY IN 1992 AND REGISTERED IT UNDER THE TRADEMARK TUROLD MIKULOV. NOW, AS A FAMILY, WE CONCENTRATE ON RUNNING A WINE GUESTHOUSE, A WINE SHOP AND, ABOVE ALL, THE PRODUCTION OF SMALL BATCHES OF TYPICAL LOCAL WINES.
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.
