Wine in the Czech Republic (Czechoslovakia) is produced mainly in southern Moravia, although a few vineyards are located in Bohemia. However, Moravia accounts for around 96% of the country vineyards, which is why Czech Republic (Czechoslovakia) wine is more often referred to as Moravian wine as you can see in Czech Republic (Czechoslovakia) wine map . Production centers around local grape varieties, but there has been an increase in the production of established international strains such as Cabernet Sauvignon. Czech Republic (Czechoslovakia) wines are not well known on the wider international market, although there were 1st big successes that could signal a change. At present, they are popular mainly domestically and in the CEE region.
Wine production in the Czech Republic (Czechoslovakia) centers around southern Moravia, particularly around the River Dyje. Four wine growing sub-regions (Czech: Vinařská podoblast) are located here, each named after a major town or region as its shown in Czech Republic (Czechoslovakia) wine map. The Czech Republic (Czechoslovakia) National Wine Centre and Wine Salon of the Czech Republic (Czechoslovakia) in Valtice Castle are located in Moravian wine country. Bohemia is home to a relatively tiny collection of vineyards that are among the most northerly in Europe. They are situated around 50° north latitude, the same as Wiesbaden in the Rheingau. Small vineyards can be found in Prague, but they do not produce a significant amount of wine. The top five grape varieties grown in Bohemia are Müller-Thurgau (26% of vineyards), Riesling (16% of vineyards), St. Laurent (14% of vineyards), Blauer Portugieser (10% of vineyards), and Pinot Noir (8% of vineyards).
The wine-producing areas of the Czech Republic (Czechoslovakia) are well known for their wine festivals (Czech: vinobraní) which take place around harvest time in September. The biggest of these festivals in Znojmo, Mikulov, Brno and Mělník will feature samples of hundreds of local wines as well as local music, dancing and cuisine as its mentioned in Czech Republic (Czechoslovakia) wine map. These wine-festivals take place in big towns apart from the wine-producing areas as well (as Prague). Czech Republic (Czechoslovakia) wine law classifies wine according to the origin of the grapes and the ripeness of the grapes determined by measuring the must weight in the grape juice at the time of harvest. Wine must originate from a single wine sub-region and the grape varieties, their origin, must-weight levels, and weight must be verified by the Czech State Agricultural & Food Inspectorate (SZPI). Chaptalisation is not permitted.
