MARTIN VAJČNER

winery

I manage 7 hectares of vineyards in the Znojmo wine region. Specifically, 8 smaller vineyards, which I cultivate in a certified organic mode. I have been dedicating to the production of wines which the area of ​​origin of the grapes can be detected from. Each area and vineyard route is characterized by a different geological origin, different soil composition, different altitudes, or even the different amounts of precipitation. I strive to make wine in a way that manifests all these factors. Nature itself determines how the wines will taste as a result and therefore I minimize interventions in the cellar. The range of colors, flavors and aromas brings endless variety and this brings me endless joy as well. At the same time, I try to keep my activity in harmony with nature. I try to preserve species diversity, healthy and living soil can produce grapes of the highest quality. I return the pulp from the pressed grapes to the vineyard as fertilizer. By cultivating vineyards and working in the cellar, I try to burden the environment as little as possible and reduce the carbon footprint to a minimum.
