City Bzenec

Bzenec is situated between Kyjov and Veselí nad Moravou on the road Nr 54 leading from Znojmo to the Slovak town Nové Město nad Váhom. It is only 1O km far from Strážnice, a town well-known to folklorists. The distance from Hodonín, the county town, is 24 km.

The geological and climatic conditions and the firts-rate vinicultural soil quality enable growing top-class cultivars of grapevine.  Some of them have even more distinctive quality features than in their country of origin, which is true especially of the Rhine Riesling; the production of Bzenec vineyards bears a one-hundred-year-old trademark “Bzenecká lipka“ (The little lime of Bzenec).  The red Burgundy of Bzenec – “Zlatý hrozen“ (The golden bunch of grapes) and the sparkling wine – “Chateau Bzenec“ are also well-known.   Continue
