The Distinctiveness of Czech Wines
Moravian and Bohemian white wines are renowned for their fascinating aromatic spectrum, rich extracts, and harmonious combination of full-bodied aromas with fresh, lively acidity. In recent years, Czech red wines have gained popularity due to their full-bodied, expressive, yet soft and velvety character with a pleasant fruity aroma.
