About winemaker

The winery continues the family tradition since the 1950s. The philosophy of the small winery is to produce the best possible quality varietal wines from the Znojmo wine sub-region in small batches of around 3,000 bottles. The total annual production is about 50 000 bottles. The winery offers a wide range of tastings, especially in the tasting cellar in Nové Šaldorf, as well as experiential gastronomy and combining wine with good food. Our wines can be found in fine establishments ranging from small bistros to Michelin-starred restaurants.

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.
