Volarik Winery

“Wine is our life. We have learned to recognize and respect the unique character of each variety during every step of cultivation and processing. Our one value is uncompromising quality.” The wine tradition in the Volarik family goes back to 1945, but the Volarik Winery first entered the market in 2007. At present we cultivate 80 ha of our own vineyard in the Mikulov Wine Region, 4.2 ha under a strict ecological regime. Our winery grows grapes and makes wine from varieties typical for the countryside below the Palava Hills. The most common varieties around here are Welschriesling, Riesling, Palava and Grüner Veltliner. During the entire growing season we emphasize a low-impact treatment of the grapes – we grow fewer bunches on each vine, harvest by hand, and process immediately after harvest using the most up-to-date technology. We specialize in high-quality white wines, but we also make grape juice, rosé and sparkling wines. In 2011 we came out with a TERROIR assortment of wines based on the uniqueness of each vineyard tract. Location, subsoil, and climate strongly influence the character of the grape, and determine the method of cultivation and processing. Our terroir wines are grown in some of the area’s most prestigious vineyard tracts: Zelezna, Kotelna, Orechova hora, Vestonsko, Purmice and U Venuse. Plotny. We made ORGANIC wines for the first time in 2014. Piwi varieties - Hibernal, Johanniter and Saphira - are grown on the Vestonsko vineyard in the Perna village under ecological regime. Diligence, learning, humility, a carefully selected team of specialists and an undying love for wine have allowed the Volarik Winery to quickly earn its place among the best wine makers in the Czech Republic. Volarik winery became Winemaker of the year 2011, 2014 and 2018 of the Czech republic, our Palava Terroir U Venuse became Champion of dry white wine on the Vinalies Internationales 2020, Palava Dessert Wine got 96 points in Decanter 2024.
