About winemaker

The family winery from Žádovice near Kyjov, farms 25 hectares of vineyards in three vineyard tracks, with a very favorable location. The winery uses the most modern technology available, and owns over 100 barriques. The winery's annual production is around 200,000 bottles. Most of the wines have won a number of awards, including an annual inclusion in the National Wine Salon competition in Valtice.

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.
