About winemaker

We are a small family winery. We buy grapes for the production of white and red wines from the Ovocnářství Ing. Jan Matoušek from the vineyard Ovčáry in Blahotice u Slaného. The processing and pressing of the grapes is carried out in the pressing plant of the Jeviněvský winery, which owns vineyards southeast of the monumental Říp mountain. Training, aging and bottling of wines is carried out in our cellar in Roudnice nad Labem. In the production of our wines we use our forty-five years of experience gained during our previous work in the chateau winery Roudnice nad Labem.

Basic characteristics of wine

The origin of the Blue Portugal variety is unknown but it certainly does not come from Portugal. In our country, it is actually grown everywhere, the most widespread is in Slovácko and Velkopavlovice. For example, in the Czech Republic there are great Blue Portugal wines in the Litoměřice, Roudnice or Čáslav regions, and in Moravia around Kyjov, Uherské Hradiště or Hodonín.
