About winemaker

Obelisk Winery was established in 2016 and is housed in a modern building in the middle of the vineyards. No herbicides are used in the vineyards and the grapes are harvested mainly by hand. The wines are made using modern technology but traditional methods without embellishments and are also suitable for vegans. The wines are aged in stainless steel tanks as well as in wooden barrels and amphorae made from clay extracted during the construction of the winery. The winery is dedicated to high gastronomy, gala tastings, weddings, corporate parties and concerts.

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.
