St. Martin’s wine is the Czech equivalent of French Beaujolais. The first wine of the new year, fresh, young and fruity, aged for just a few weeks and recommended for consumption before Easter by winemakers. The first St. Martin’s wines every year are festively opened on the feast day of St. Martin, that is November11th. St. Martin’s degustation is held in a number of places and Brno is one of them. The degustation will be held on Brno’s Freedom Square, with the ceremonial opening of the first bottles taking place at 11:00 AM. On offer will be over a hundred St. Martin’s wines to sample.
