The company Žernosecké vinařství s.r.o. was founded on April 1, 1995 and smoothly continued the production activities of the Wine Breeding Station in Velké Žernosky. At present, the company manages 31 hectares of vineyards and the annual production is on average 180 000 bottles of 0.75 l.

We also provide accommodation directly in the chateau area.
