About winemaker

On the edge of the village of Havraníky, near the impressive flow of the river Dyje, is our winery. The river Dyje was already famous in the period before the Celts. The people of that time named it with the Indo-European word "dheu" or "flowing". For the next hundreds or perhaps thousands of years, it retained its reputation as a river that divided but also united peoples. Whether we call it the Thaya or the Thaya today, we are paying tribute not only to this life-giving river, but also to hundreds of years of human togetherness and the uniqueness of our wine.

Basic characteristics of wine

Sauvignon belongs among the most popular three white wines together with the Chardonnay and Riesling varieties. It is assumed that it comes from the French region of Bordeaux or from the Loire region. The most typical Sauvignons can be found in the Znojmo or Mikulov region.
