About winemaker
Jiří Šmerák builds on the experience of previous generations of family winemakers. Jiří Šmerák has been successfully involved in winemaking and viticulture since he was 16 years old. Winemaking and viticulture became the main activity of the company in 1998. Since this year, you can find wine from our production on sale all over the Czech Republic. The functioning of the winery is based on family experience and contacts, on the love for wine, for the landscape and the people who live here. That is why the cultivation of vines and the production of wine from them is carried out in the most nature-friendly way.
Basic characteristics of wine
The origin of the Blue Portugal variety is unknown but it certainly does not come from Portugal. In our country, it is actually grown everywhere, the most widespread is in Slovácko and Velkopavlovice. For example, in the Czech Republic there are great Blue Portugal wines in the Litoměřice, Roudnice or Čáslav regions, and in Moravia around Kyjov, Uherské Hradiště or Hodonín.
