The Kovář Winery is a small family winery in the picturesque village of Vlčnov in South Moravia, producing its wines on the very edge of the Slovácké subregion in a village famous for the colourful beauty of its costumes, winemaking and above all its customs and traditions. Our winery produces wines mainly from its own grapes hand-picked on the tracks in Vlčnov in the highest possible phenological quality. Only a small amount of wine is produced from carefully selected grapes from our long-standing suppliers from the Slovácko sub-region.
The variety was cultivated in Velké Pavlovice in 1960 by Ing. Jaroslav Horák from Frankovka and Saint Laurence. It was named in honour of Ch. K. André, the founder of the Association for Vine and Fruit Breeding in Brno. This is one of the reasons why we can find it especially in the Velkopavlovice subregion, however, interesting André wines are definitely also produced in the Slovácko and Mikulov regions.
