New edition

For example, in the Blue Mountains, we ride down the slope directly into the cellar, we walk on snowshoes to trim the vineyard, instead of a bombardino, we drink red mulled wine, on weekends we have open cellars, and in the evening by the cymbal, we greatly enjoy OUR WINTER here…

But let's start nicely in order, for example with an early hike to the snowy vineyards in Hustopeče, a walk through the castle park in Lednice or Valtice with a bottle of fragrant mulled wine, traditional delicacies, and a great mood.

We are not in a hurry, so before lunch, we can still manage a short warm-up in the hot tub or a light massage in some of our favorite spas in Lednice or great wellness hotels. Next comes the first glass of traditional vlašák, pálava, frankovka, or andré. And for the big cold ones, we have almond brandy, apricot brandy, or tramín brandy…

And because after lunch we are looking forward to our favorite cultural exploration, lots of fun, and of course, above all, never-ending tastings of the best that has matured in our cellars, it is necessary to have a good foundation. We know well how and where to enchant the discerning palates, but if you want to be completely sure, choose from the gastronomic establishments awarded in the prestigious Gourmet Southern Moravia competition. You will see for yourself that ours are always among the best!

And we are heading to the finale - an amazing tasting awaits us in the wine cellar with a cymbal player or accordionist, lots of great wine and traditional delicacies… we dance and sing until morning…

So what do you say, what will your somewhat DIFFERENT WINTER be like?

Festivals, tastings, open cellars, or traditional pig slaughters and folklore events are organized by some wine village every weekend throughout the winter.
