Mikulov, Perná, Bavory and Sedlec belong among the most important wine-growing municipalities. Several local varieties of wine have been created in the wine growing and cultivation station in Perná, such as the Pálava variety.
You may get lots of knowledge of wine growing and wine visiting the museum exposition in the Mikulov chateau. The exposition also includes the Giant Barrel, the volume of which is 101 thousand litres. The Mikulov Educative Wine Route will guide you to the places of interest related to wine growing. Among other sites, it will take you to the baroque wine cellars in Pavlov, which are protected unique monuments of folk architecture. You may also follow similar topical routes nearby Novosedly and Pavlov. Two cycling Moravian wine routes – the Mikulov and Moravian Wine Routes – are rather longer.
The most important wine-related event, which you surely should not miss, is the Pálava Wine Festival held in Mikulov in September. However, there is a number of wine-tasting events and wine expositions held all the year round to which you are kindly invited.
