Great Pavlovice are wine town with a long tradition. The beginnings of vine growing here date back to 14. century.

Septuagenarian average annual temperatures of nearly 10 ° C, čtyřiačtyřicetiletý average hours of sunshine is 1,871 throw., while several years is higher than the number of hours 2.000.
Cut the vine is carried out on a towing size 8 – 10 stitches and Twin-one backup suppository. This ensures a good distribution of shoots on the bush, their smaller thickening and better climatic conditions. This is important to protect the vines, because it puts less demands on chemical plant protection. Towing is tethered to a guide wire horizontally. During the green works are the first two leaves on young wood removed and this allows better insolation and airiness grapes.
The first protective spray is directed into full bloom. This will spit partial restriction on the number of flowers and berries on individual grapes.
All our vineyards are grassed vegetation and chopped several times a year. Grassing is important not only for reasons of water retention in the soil, but also because of the hardening of the surface and allow access to vineyards for green jobs or plant protection.

Where did the wine

Most scientific studies puts the origins of viticulture in the Caspian Sea. From there it spread to Asia Minor, Iran, Číny a Indie. Gradually, the cultivation of vines spread to North Africa, and later to Europe.

In Egypt, wine was produced according to preserved records of the tombs of the pharaohs already 3200 BC. Wine, but boha Osir, It was considered at that time the most important and noble beverage whose production and preservation has been paid great attention.

The earliest evidence of winemaking in the Czech Republic dates back to the reign of the Roman Emperor Proba (276-282), which lifted the ban on planting vineyards in Roman colonies beyond the Alps. From this period also remains the fulcrum of the Roman garrison of Vindobona (today Vienna) „Legio Decima Gemina, Pia Fidelis“. During excavations masonry buildings tenth legion military station near the former village Mušov near Mikulov found evidence of vine growing around the military camp. Findings wine knives and other tools are wine throughout southern Moravia numerous.

The beginnings of Bohemian viticulture apply according to legend, to the year 892, when Prince Bořivoj celebrated the birth of their son Spytihněv and on this occasion was gifted Moravian Prince Svatopluk barrel of excellent Moravian wine. Bořivojova wife Ludmila tasted wine and asked for a stone bowl, which he sacrificed some wine goddess of the harvest backpack:…. nepršal even before that no rain for three months, and thou done this, That night fell abundant rain upon the earth. I may know it and so everybody said,, that through the sacrifice of the wine country there was a watered…. Princess Ludmila then wanted to develop a winery for the first vineyard was founded in Nedomice at Melnik apprentice the secrets of wine production and her grandson Vaclav.

A greater expansion of vineyards occurs during the Great Moravian Empire. The first written mention of vineyards in Moravia, however, comes up from the year 1101 and is located in the charter of the Benedictine monastery in Trebic, who was presented with several vineyards.

Its undeniable influence on the development of medieval winemaking had a violent introduction of Christianity in non-Christian communities in our country in 11. – 13. century. Right planting vineyards, wine production and its šenkování, as well as exemption from certain obligations to the monarch was granted, or allow only Christians. The disposal not only the vineyards, but entire villages on grounds of illegal cultivation of vines there are a number of documents.

Known as the legislative steps the Czech kings 14. century, which was dealt a trade war between winemakers from Melnik and Litomerice during which they were repeatedly plundered not only the vineyards, but both cities. After one such attack, according remained extant reports on Melnik alive only 59 resident. Preservation of wine-viticultural knowledge, so it was no written records and manuals very difficult. Much more difficult, however, was the restoration of the fight, or plague destroyed winery.

Moravia was a dispute about the most important battle between Austrian and Moravian wine makers, which solved until the year 1325 King Jana Lucemburského regulation which determined preferential right tapping Moravian wines from the new harvest until Easter. The beginning of sales of young wines at the time of the feast of St.. Martina. With that, it is also related to the appointment of Regulation the first official wine taster.

In the second half 16. century come to Moravia Baptists Habáns. Their influence is reflected in the Winery. They worked in the planting of vineyards, when digging cellars, let to regularize as winemaker and also introduce new ways of growing vines, new varieties and yet unknown ways of treating the wine. As a result of these changes, there was a further improvement in the quality of wines and causing other trade war with Austria. Year 1569 Ferdinand I. meet at some time to Austrian winemakers and banned the import of Moravian wines in Austria. Moravian Diet blockade Moravian wines removed by, that in 1575 threatened to ban the import of Austrian wines, as well as its transport through Moravia to other countries. In this peak period of development was most intense wine regions around Moravia 170 000 ha of vineyards.

At the end 18. Century took the effort to restore Moravian wine after the decline of the Thirty Years War. In 1789 Moravia was counted only about 17 000 ha of vineyards. Total proceeds from the vineyards was estimated at 256 784 hl vína, which was about 15 hl for 1 he has, representing the optimum ratio for the manufacture of consumption. Gregory ranked by quality Free Moravian wines in 1784 thus: I. class - wines from Sedlec, Mikulov, Great Pavlovic, Popic and Lower Dunajovice.

Further decrease in vineyard area has caused the introduction révokaza (root aphid), It was in our country for the first time discovered in 1890 v Šatově. From America came to us not only phylloxera, which destroyed the original winery rooted vine, but oidium (fungal disease of plants) and at the turn of the century also peronospora, which are fungal diseases of the foliage and grapes, against which they help a regular and repeated several times during the vegetation spraying.

In 1901 for example, was founded the first state and municipal nurseries in Great Pavlovice the original area only 0,60 he has. It was a time when it was necessary to cultivate the vine and grafted seedlings which were to be replaced in the vineyards rooted vines are subject to upward pressure phylloxera. First grafts left school in year 1903. In 1904 It was built the first greenhouse stratification.

Year 1902 They were appointed first inspectors winery, whose main job was to fight phylloxera and fungal diseases. They were set up provincial and state nurseries with stratification greenhouses and planting of root stock. There they taught winemakers grafting vines resistant to phylloxera and the production of such rooted seedlings for planting new vineyards.

In 1901 for example, was founded the first state and municipal nurseries in Great Pavlovice the original area only 0,60 he has. It was a time when it was necessary to cultivate the vine and grafted seedlings which were to be replaced in the vineyards rooted vines are subject to upward pressure phylloxera. Here I have to state what it. Normally, he stuck into the ground rod vine and then it grew a plant. From America came to Europe that aphids sucking sap from the vine until the plant completely exterminated. Phylloxera destroyed the twenty years since the arrival in Europe 95 % All the vineyards in Europe! First grafts left school in year 1903.

In 1930 It was recorded the lowest area of ​​the vineyard in Moravia. were counted 3 790 ha of vineyards.

In 1988 was the census of vineyards in Czechoslovakia recorded 45 000 ha of vineyards. Today, the Czech Republic planted just under 20 000 ha of vineyards and wine sold in stores is only about 30 % wines of domestic origin. Compared to the previous provisions of law 1995 establishes a classification of wines by achievement of quality grapes.

The winery is nice and hard work, and the market is only a few wines from Moravia and Bohemia, Therefore, it is necessary to weigh our domestic wines.
