Moravia accounts for the vast majority of Czech wine production, its vineyards spread across four sub-regions between the Dyje and Morava rivers. Browse the independent growers listed here and buy directly from their cellars.

Moravia sits in the south-east of the Czech Republic, where the Carpathian foothills moderate the continental climate and limestone-rich soils run through much of the vineyard land. The region is divided into four sub-regions — Znojemská, Velkopavlovická, Slovácká and Mikulovská — each with its own character, from the cooler, more aromatic whites around Znojmo to the fuller-bodied reds grown closer to the Slovak border. Most estates here are small, family-run operations, and the wines they produce rarely travel far beyond the Czech market through conventional distribution. On Free Grape Society, producers sell and ship directly from their own cellar, with no importer or warehouse in between.
Several Moravian growers also offer a wine case: six bottles from their own cellar, put together as a single recommendation across the styles they make. It is a practical way to taste how one producer reads Moravia — whether that means a run of Welschriesling and Grüner Veltliner from the Mikulovská sub-region, or a mix of white and red across a family's different vineyard plots. Each case stays with one producer and is never blended across estates. Free Grape Society is a society of producers, independent experts and wine lovers, not a shop, and the cases here reflect that: a grower's own selection, shipped directly from the cellar.

The wines listed from Moravia cover the region's main strengths: aromatic white varieties such as Welschriesling, Müller-Thurgau and Sauvignon Blanc, which suit the cooler northern sub-regions, alongside Pinot Noir and Zweigeltrebe in areas with enough warmth to ripen red grapes. A smaller number of producers are working with orange wine and lower-intervention styles, reflecting a wider Central European interest in natural approaches that has found a foothold in Moravia's younger generation of growers.
Independent wine experts on Free Grape Society rate and review wines they have personally tasted, and their notes appear on the relevant wine page and on each expert's own profile. Several of the experts active on the platform have tasted wines from Czech producers, including bottles from Moravia. Their reviews are one way to read a wine before you order, sitting alongside the producer's own description and the technical information on the page.
Browse the cases on this page, select the one that interests you, and add it to your cart. Each case is six bottles from a single Moravian producer. Payment is handled securely via Klarna or card, and the case ships directly from the producer's cellar to your door. Delivery typically takes between 4 and 14 days.
Send a photo to Free Grape Society customer support within 7 days of delivery. We will arrange a replacement or a refund. Because producers ship directly, quality issues are handled with the producer's direct involvement. Shared responsibility is built into how FGS works.
Each case contains exactly six bottles, all from one producer. The grower composes the selection themselves — it might span several grape varieties, different vineyard parcels, or a mix of styles from their range. The case is the producer's own recommendation, not a mix drawn from multiple estates.
Average delivery is 8 to 9 days from order to door. The full range is 4 to 14 days depending on the producer's location and your delivery address. Wines ship directly from the producer's cellar, not from a central warehouse.
Read the producer description and the wines included in each case. Because every case comes from a single estate, looking at the grower's location within Moravia — whether they work the cooler Znojmo sub-region or the warmer Velké Pavlovice area — and the grape varieties they use will tell you a lot about the style you can expect.
The producer composes the case themselves, so the selection reflects their own strengths and what they want to show. A grower farming multiple parcels might use all six bottles to trace how the same grape tastes across different sites, while a smaller estate might offer a cross-section of everything they make. The case is a personal recommendation from the cellar.
The independent wine experts listed on this page have personal experience tasting wines from Moravia and the Czech Republic. Browse their profiles to see their tasting notes and track records. You can also submit a question to a wine expert through the form on the platform and receive a personal recommendation.
Because a case composed by a single grower says something coherent about how that producer works. Blending bottles from different producers would give you variety but lose the point of view. Six bottles from one Moravian estate lets you understand a cellar — its grape choices, its vineyard sites, its style — in a way that a mixed selection cannot.
Most wine retail and online shops stock wines from larger producers or importers. The independent Moravian estates on Free Grape Society typically sell directly from their own cellars without going through the import and distribution chain, which means their wines are rarely found in standard retail. Ordering here puts you in direct contact with the producer.
Moravia sits in the south-east of the Czech Republic, sharing a border with Austria and Slovakia, and it accounts for the great majority of the country's vineyard land. The region divides into four subregions — Znojmo, Mikulov, Velkopavlovická and Slovácká — each shaped by a different interplay of soil and climate. Znojmo, in the west, is cooler and suits aromatic whites such as Welschriesling and Grüner Veltliner; Mikulov, closest to Austria, sits on limestone and chalk and produces some of Moravia's most structured whites; Velkopavlovická, the largest subregion, carries more clay and grows both white and red varieties; Slovácká, the furthest east, is the warmest and gives the fullest reds. Most estates here are small, often family-run, and have worked the same plots across generations. That scale means decisions about farming and winemaking stay close to the person who signs the label. You can browse the full range of Czech Republic wineries or explore Moravian wines and Moravian wine cases alongside the producers listed here.
We work directly with the growers behind the wines, which means we get to know how they farm and what they charge before a single bottle is listed. Producers send samples, and those samples are tasted before a wine is listed — the decision rests on what is in the glass rather than on a label or a reputation. We look for pricing that reflects the work in the vineyard without the mark-ups that importers, agents and large warehouses typically add, and we keep the relationship direct so the grower sets their own terms. Once a wine is listed, independent wine experts rate and review individual bottles, building a public track record that buyers can read on the wine page. We do not try to carry the full output of a region: we list wines tasted before listing, from producers we have a direct relationship with. Free Grape Society is a society of producers, independent experts and wine lovers, not a shop, and that shapes every producer we bring on.
Moravia has been growing wine since at least the medieval period, and the tradition runs deep enough that wine cellars — sklepní ulička, the cellar lanes — are a fixture of village life in the south of the region. The style that emerged here leans toward aromatic, food-friendly whites: Welschriesling, Müller-Thurgau, Palava and Moravian Muscat are widely planted and tend to be bottled young and fresh. Palava is a Moravian crossing developed locally, with a distinctly floral character that is hard to find elsewhere. On the red side, Blauer Portugieser and Frankovka (Blaufränkisch) have long roots, while Saint Laurent and Cabernet Moravia — another crossing bred for the region's continental climate — have gained ground more recently. The continental conditions, with cold winters and warm summers, mean sugar accumulation can be rapid in ripe years, so many growers harvest carefully to hold onto freshness and structure. That balance between ripeness and acidity is a thread running through Moravian wine at its best. For a wider view of central European producers, see Austrian wineries and German wineries.
