There are chateaux where you might be offered a knightly duel, but at the chateau in Valtice you will be poured wine instead.
The perfectly renovated chateau cellar is the most beautiful backdrop for a hundred of best wines of the Czech Republic of every current season. The Valtice Chateau cellars are a Mecca for wine lovers. Proof of this is the title of TOP Wine Destination.
Except for January, you can enjoy the dignified atmosphere during wine-tasting all year round. Choose a wine-tasting program according to your taste. An experienced sommelier will be happy to guide you through the amazing local wine collection. (It is better to book a guided wine-tasting in advance, so that you are expected.) Or would you instead prefer to taste the samples yourself at your own pace as part of the 120-minute self-guided wine-tasting?
The Wine Salon also offers an educational exhibition dedicated to viticulture, and you can buy more than just sommelier equipment in the shop.
And before or after the wine-tasting, we recommend a walk through the beautiful chateau park or a tour of the chateau. The luxurious Baroque and Rococo interiors will put you in a truly royal mood.
