The Czech Republic will once again present the potential of our wines at the international ProWein fair

At the prestigious international trade fair ProWein 2025 in Düsseldorf (16-18. March), 10 diverse wineries will present themselves under the banner of the Czech Republic, offering visitors almost 60 samples directly from the hands of the winemakers themselves on site. More than 100 more will be newly introduced in the free tasting zone.

New motto: Czech Republic - the wine country of the future
Czech winemaking is developing dynamically and responding to the global challenges of modern winemaking. This is evidenced by this year's motto "Czech wines of the Future", i.e. "Czech Republic - the wine country of the future". This claim underlines the strengths of our winemaking: progressive ecological approaches, high quality and sustainability. Czech winemaking is characterised by minimal use of sprays - on average only eight per year, the lowest in Europe. Winegrowers work with denser plantings to help withstand drought and extreme climaticconditions, and use irrigation mixtures that improve water retention in the vineyards.The Czech Republic is one of the pioneers in the cultivation of PIWI varieties, which are resistant to disease and enable sustainable viticulture. A new generation of winegrowers is bringing a fresh perspective to traditional methods by drawing inspiration from foreign experience. Another trend in recent years is the introduction of trees into vineyards, which promotes biodiversity and natural ecosystems. Czech wineries are also able to respond flexibly to difficult vintages and maintain stable wine quality.

Free tasting zone - an effective way to discover Czech wines
A new feature of this year's edition is the extended presentation of more than 100 samples in the so-called Free Tasting Area. These zones have become a trend at international fairs and are proving to be an effective tool for discovering new wine regions. The Free Tasting Area will offer wines from the smallest family wineries to large producers, including winners of prestigious competitions such as Winemaker of the Year and Winery of the Year. In addition to traditional varieties, we will also present PIWI wines and several natural samples, including those certified by DEMETER.

What can you look forward to?
Visitors to ProWein 2025 will be able to discover a wide variety of Czech varieties, which we describe in three groups:

• Local darlings.
• Internationals: discover Czech Riesling, Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Pinot Blanc and Pinot Noir.
• Bubbles & Naturals & PiWi: Follow trends in organic farming, organic production and low-intervention wines.

Special tastings at the booth
We have also arranged special guided tastings. We thus invite you to stand H89 in Hall 9, whose design by CHYBIK + KRISTOF ASSOCIATED ARCHITECTS symbolizes the essence of winemaking, those interested in tasting Magnum bottles or more mature vintages.

Sunday 14:00 - Tasting of Magnum bottles with Klara Kollárová, national sommelier and DipWSET.

The partners of the project are the Wine Fund and the South Moravian Region, support is provided by the Union of Winegrowers and the Ministry of Agriculture, but above all by the participating wineries themselves.
