About winemaker

The family winery, whose roots date back to 1945, entered the wine market under the name Vinařství Volařík in 2008. In integrated production, it now manages 80 ha of its own vineyards in the Mikulov wine sub-region, of which 4.2 ha are in organic production. The grapes are harvested mainly by hand. The winery focuses on the production of quality white wines, the offer is complemented by rosé and red wines, Volařík Sekty produced using the traditional method and grape must.

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.
