The Producer

About Strekov 1075

Our company name bears the significance of Strekov's earliest documented mention, symbolizing our deep-rooted commitment to tradition, nature, and the essence of winemaking in Strekov. Cultivating 12 hectares of vineyards with utmost ecological responsibility, we prioritize indigenous grape varietals such as Rizling vlašský, Veltlínske zelené, Modrý Portugal, Frankovka modrá, and Svätovavrinecké across our 5 hectares of vineyards supported by wooden poles. Embracing a hands-on approach, all vineyard tasks are meticulously carried out by hand. In the cellar, our wines undergo spontaneous fermentation in barrels and open vats, devoid of any intervention.
