On the edge of the village of Havraníky, near the impressive flow of the river Dyje, is our winery. The river Dyje was already famous in the period before the Celts. The people of that time named it with the Indo-European word "dheu" or "flowing". For the next hundreds or perhaps thousands of years, it retained its reputation as a river that divided but also united peoples. Whether we call it the Thaya or the Thaya today, we are paying tribute not only to this life-giving river, but also to hundreds of years of human togetherness and the uniqueness of our wine.

Thaya Winery
For thousands of years, the river Thaya has maintained its reputation as a dividing river,
but also uniting nations. Whether we call it today
Dyje or Thaya, we are paying tribute not only to this
to the river itself, but also to hundreds of years of human community
- and a great wine that crosses borders.
Meet the Thaya Winery, a new winery
and gastronomic jewel of the Znojmo region.
It might seem that Thaya is an emerging winery,
but the reality is different. Although the modern premises
on the outskirts of Havraníky was inaugurated in the summer
2022, Thaya was created by transforming the Trávníček winery
and Kořínek. The name is changing, but the philosophy and approach
remain. In the words of Josef Trávníček, the restaurant's owner,
winery and hotel, one of the goals was to
was to create a place where all guests could be invited,
taste wines, experience great gastronomy and relax
in a stylish hotel.
As the name reveals, the newly opened wine area
with its breathtaking interior and exterior is located
near the river Dyje. It blends perfectly with the magical landscape
Podyjí National Park and at the same time
combines the concept of a super-modern operation with a hotel
and restaurant. In addition to the name of the winery, the life-giving river Dyje
is reminiscent of the winery's name, the undulating roofs of the halls and the facilities for
tourists who can stay in the apartments
reminiscent of a hobbit village.
The design of the entire complex was created by the architect
Jakub Cigler. The complex is divided into two parts
into a working yard for the winery and an area for relaxation and wine
tourism. Both of these yards are divided by the building of the former
granary, on the roof of which an observation deck has been created. Dyje
