The Wine Salon is the final of the annual national competition which presents awards for Champion Wine, Category Winners and the Best Collection. In addition, the 100 best wines will receive the title of Wine Salon of the Czech Republic, and they can be tasted in the cellar grounds of Valtice Chateau, a UNESCO Listed Site.
That is because Valtice Chateau is home to the National Wine Centre. The exposition of the hundred best wines is open all year round except for January so visitors can indulge themselves in tasting, identifying and even buying Czech wine. However, near the end of the year sales may be limited to make sure there is a sufficient quantity of wine left for tasting. In Valtice you can combine pleasure with an even greater pleasure: taste the best wines of the Czech Republic and explore the grounds of one of the most splendid chateau areas in the country, inscribed on the World Cultural Heritage List as a part of the Lednice-Valtice Complex . Its surroundings offer ideal conditions for bike trips enhanced by the beauty of the wine regions with Mikulov at its centre.
