About winemaker
Great-grandfather Jaštík discovered the magic of the vineyard and the pleasure of making his own wine 100 years ago. He planted a vineyard in Vacenovice, in the heart of the Dolňácko region of Kyjov, and made his first wine from it. Much has changed since then, but the family tradition has remained. Now the main varieties of Jaštík Winery include Chardonnay, Aurelius, Pálava, Hibernal, Sauvignon, Dornfelder and Zweigeltrebe.
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.
