        Producer Information

        Since the 13th century, the gnarled shape of vines have been a constant feature of the landscape. The ideal conditions for their growth were created mainly by the south-facing slopes and a pleasantly warm climate with plenty of sunshine. Such conditions were embodied by the name given to this area: Sonnenberg; or 'Sunny Hill'. In the 16th century, the wines from the Sonnenberg hill had built up such a reputation that the Czech king and the Moravian margrave Ludvík Jagellonský demanded them for their courts. A surviving document mentions dates from 1522, in which the king addresses the Brno City Council and asks on behalf of his wife and himself that "six drajlinkuov wines of good quality and delicious to drink be sent". Another important mention of today's Sonberk vineyard is from the 18th century. From this period comes information about the first appellation system in Moravia. The system looks at the quality of wine according to the place of origin of grapes, which gives the wine a unique character. The author of this evaluation is the Benedictine monk Gregor (Řehoř) Wolný, who ranked Popice and their vineyards among the five best in Moravia. All of this convinced the owners of the modern-day Sonberk winery to look to the slopes opposite the Pálava hills for their vineyard site. When they founded the winery in 2003, it was their vision to use this historically proven location to grow the highest quality grapes, which would be transformed into the best wines in the Czech Republic. In the beginning, we produced wines in rented cellars. Since 2008, however, everything has been happening under one winery roof specially built according to the design of Josef Pleskot for viticultural purposes.
