Family winery - Jindřich Kadrnka WINERY Our family winery is located in the wine-growing village of Březí near Mikulov, close to the beautiful Palava and Dunajovské Hills. Our family has been involved in viticulture and wine production for many years. I and my family are the fourth generation to continue the winery. I have worked in the vineyard and cellar since I was a child, but my first and most important professional step was my first job. In 2001, I joined Mikrosvín Mikulov, where, under the guidance of Ing. Zdeněk Peřina I gained a lot of experience and knowledge. Currently, I work in Vinařství Volařík Mikulov, where Filip Mlýnek and I are in charge of the production part. In our family winery we try to produce top quality grapes, because we believe that only this is the basis for excellent wine. We emphasize all the work in the vineyard, the least chemical intervention, the most gentle approach to the vines, the grapes and the wine in general. We grow varieties typical for us and new varieties that we believe can be of high quality. These are Riesling, Riesling, Veltliner, Pinot Blanc, Chardonnay, Palava, and the new Johanniter. The blue varieties are Zweigeltrebe and Merlot.
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.
