About winemaker
Family-run organic winery, farming 12 ha of vineyards on Kraví hora near Znojmo. It was the first winery in the Znojmo region to introduce gravity processing of grapes in a new, but historically conceived cellar in Nový Šaldorf. In addition to traditional white, rose and red wines, it also produces special wines such as ice wines, wines aged on yeast and in oak barrels (sur lie) or liqueur wines (Šaler). Špalek Winery was awarded the "Small Winery of the Year" award in 2015.
Basic characteristics of wine
Veltlín Green is our most widespread variety and is grown on about 14% of the area of our vineyards. It is definitely worth trying Veltlín wine from the Znojmo, Mikulov or Velkopavlovice regions, and in Bohemia from Mělnicko, Roudnice or Most.
