About winemaker
VINAŘSTVÍ ŠABATA s.r.o. (2010) in the first phase focused on building a new operation on the site of a former quarry on the outskirts of the municipality. Zaječí. After the building was approved (2011), the same year the processing of grapes from the vineyards of the Přítlucká Mountain - 292 m above sea level and the municipalities of Rakvice, Přítluky, Zaječí and Milovice began. The company was founded as a natural successor of a small family winery and currently its employees are father and two sons Šabat. The winery runs year-round tasting and sightseeing programs.
Basic characteristics of wine
Pálava was cultivated by Ing. Josef Veverka by crossing the varieties Gewürztraminer and Müller Thurgau. Probably the best results are achieved mainly in the Mikulov subregion, in the vicinity of the municipalities of Perná, Pavlov or Bulhary, then in Lechovice, Popice or Čejkovice. Pálava is often automatically perceived as a sweet wine, i.e. with a higher residual sugar but this is not always the rule. In the dry version we discover the charm and beauty of this variety.
