Moravian and Bohemian wine-makers will again take part in the German ProWein exhibition

The ProWein exhibition is one of the biggest and most popular wine shows in the world. This year the organisers expect 3 000 exhibitors and more than 33 000 expert visitors.

The Czech stall (E20) will be placed in the Hal No 3 and will be financed mostly from the Winegrowers’ Fund. The wines will represent the production of Bohemia Sekt, a.s, Moravské vinařské závody Bzenec, s.r.o., Templářské sklepy Čejkovice and Nové vinařství, a.s.. The National stall of wines from the Czech Republic will be at ProWein already for several times.

“Our participation in ProWein, one of the most significant wine shows in the world, was in the past always successful from the view point of general presentations of our wines abroad as well as from the view point of commercial success of wineries that take part in the National Stall”, said Mr. Pavel Krška, Director of the National Wine Centre, which organises the Stall and together with the Winegrowers’ Fund they will organise presentation of our wines. “It is a very interesting deed for image making of our wine abroad, similarly as the success of our wines at the most prestigious world competitions,” he added.

Within the exhibition visitors can again look forward to the unique exposition called Wine´s best friends, which will introduce the most exclusive combinations of wine and delicatessens. The culinary specialities from the whole world in a combination with quality wine will be introduced. Of course you will find there also the traditional wine-tasting zone for red and white wines, where the visitors can try more than 1000 wine samples from all over the world. In the part presenting red wines visitors can taste wine from the regions with cooler climate.
And in white wines zone they can discover the secrets of Pinot Blanc and Chardonnay.

Nové Vinařství, a.s. / New Winery
www.novevinarstvi.cz
Nové vinařství is a young, progressive “high-tech” winery, which was in 2006 the discovery of the year at the local wine stage. Already during the first year of its existence it won a number of medals, diplomas and awards in the Czech Republic and abroad. The winery produces only white and rosé wines that are of top quality in this particular region. Wines are made from matured or even over-ripe grapes, with an emphasis on a small burden of the bushes and careful picking, with the help of the latest technology without increasing the sugar content and without lowering the acid content.
They use modern, untraditional, but at the same time a top quality approach to bottle emballage, dark green Rhine “pistols” that emphasise the overall impression from these fresh, glittering and aromatic wines. The customers can choose from three lines - CÉPAGE, CUVÉE and LÉGER. The CÉPAGE line offers lighter and elegant varietal wines with a glass cap and a very modern crazy label, whilst the CUVÉE line symbolises the top white blend wines with a more pronounced impression, LÉGER are sweet wines with low alcohol content (5%).

The National Wine Centre is a non-profit organisation situated in the Valtice Chateau. It objective is the promotion and support of wine and viticulture of the Czech Republic, not only with the help of the competition and wine-tasting exposition of the Wine Salon of CR, but also via expert literature publishing, organising training courses and seminars as well as general promotion of Moravian and Bohemian wines in close cooperation with the Winegrowers’ Fund of the Czech Republic.

Winegrowers’ Fund was established in 2002 on the basis of a change of the “Wine Act”. Prior to the entry of CR into EU its objective was to support planting of new vineyards in the wine-growing regions Moravia and Bohemia; nowadays it supports only wine marketing, wine tourism development and informs public about wine-growing and wine-making. The Winegrowers’ Fund works on similar basis as organisations in other European wine-growing countries.
