Mikulov & Valtice
Picturesque but totally underrated, Mikulov and its castle sit precariously on a hill in the centre of the flat wine-growing region of Palava, a UNESCO - designated biosphere reservation. One of South Moravia's highlights, Mikulov has some very impressive monuments, but it should come as no surprise that Mikulov is most popular for its excellent white wines. The history of this Southern Moravian chateau Valtice, as winery, goes back centuries; indeed the underground vaults constructed in 1640 are still used for storage and now fermentation purposes.

Velke Pavlovice
This winery, established in 1936, has been through various incarnations owing principally to politics. A state enterprise in Communist times, it has recently been converted into a private stock-holding company. Logistically it has the proportions of a co-op, with a total production of 140,000 hectoliters and a capacity of over 160,000. The wines produced - from Muller-Thurgau, Pinot Blanc, Sauvignon, Grüner Veltliner and the Rieslings (Welsh and Rhine) in the white department; and, less importantly, from Frankovka and Vavrinec in the red - were pretty undistinguished until the Australian team of Nick Butler and Mark Nairn came along in 1993 to claim the cream for Britain's supermarkets.

Brno a Podyji
The whole region to the south of Brno is the driest area, with the lowest rainfall. It was always called " land of thirst ". This fact was the reason for the expansion, from the 10th century on, of the plantation of vineyards. Because of this, southern Moravia is inseparably connected to wine and to images of pleasant stops among welcoming people. A stay in southern Moravia without a visit to a wine cellar is almost unimaginable. It involves not only the sparkling Moravia wine, but also the tender lyricism of loving and deeply emotional folk song.

Znojmo
Wine region with a long history. First export of wine allowed by King Charles IV. in 1375. Jesuits based in 1740 wide "Cross-cellar" to save wine as a tax from nearest wineries. Located along the Austrian border.

Mutenice & Cejkovice
Based in 1902 on the southern hills of Moravia.

Uherske Hradiste
Located in the southern edge of Moravian wine regions. Majority of production are white wines.

Straznice
This region is located on the hills of White Carpatian, growing from heavy ground. First right to grow wine in Straznice becomes from 1417 given by Petr z Kravar.

Bzenec
Based by King Premysl Otakar II., in the end of 13th century.
