Winery

Looking for more than just wine? When you buy from us, you get the result of a year-round dedication, respect for nature and tradition. Our wines are not just products made from grapes — they are experiences into which we pour a piece of ourselves.

Welcome to Zaječí, a small wine-producing village beneath Pálava.

We are a young family winery from Zaječí and our wines are made from grapes that ripen on five hectares of our own vineyards. We value the soil and care for the vineyards with respect for nature and the landscape. We do not use herbicides, we utilize biological protection, and by sowing legume-cereal mixtures we enrich the soil and prevent erosion. When processing the grapes, we proceed gently, allowing their uniqueness to stand out.

Pavlica Winery was officially founded in 2012. However, it was established gradually since 2006, when Honza, still a student, bought his first vineyard and rented a cellar.

The current annual production of the winery is around 30,000 bottles of wine, which we supply to selected restaurants, bistros, cafes, and wine shops, but also directly to you, our dear customers.

Vineyard background

Vineyards

Our vineyards are located in the village of Zaječí, which falls under the Velké Pavlovice wine sub-region. They are planted on a southern slope in the Pod Novou horou vineyard tract. It is a unique location and grapevines have been grown here since Roman times. It is influenced by the microclimate of Pálava, the Nové Mlýny reservoirs, and the geological bedrock containing limestone.

White varieties:
Sauvignon Blanc, Hibernal, Pálava, Pinot Gris, Pinot Blanc, Chardonnay

Red varieties:
Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon

Honza Pavlica — winemaker

Winemaker

Although Honza does not come from a traditional winemaking family, he was always very close to wine. He graduated from the Secondary Wine School in Valtice and continued his studies at Mendel University, which brought him many friendships with other young winemakers, but also with his wife.

After graduating from university, he worked for 8 years as a technologist and cellar master, gathered experience at home and abroad, and gradually created his own winery.

Our Team

Behind every bottle stands our family. We make wine with love, humility and joy — and we love to share that joy with you.

Honza Pavlica

Honza Pavlica

Winemaker, viticulturist, sommelier, oenologist and the heart of the team

Wine is Honza’s life. His role cannot be described in a single word — in winter he prunes the vineyards, during the season he drives the tractor and carefully oversees the "green work", and in autumn he watches over the fermenting musts in the cellar. He is behind every bottle, leads tastings, and takes care of everything from the first bud to the final wine. His signature is in every sip.

  • When he’s not in the vineyard: He loves Italy, skiing, or watching a good Bond film.
  • Wine tip: He swears by our Merlot.
Lenka Pavlicová

Lenka Pavlicová

Winemaker’s wife, visionary, designer and the soul of the winery

Lenka makes sure you feel at home with us. She manages the e-shop, communications and administration, but above all she shapes the aesthetic face of our winery — from label design to the stylish atmosphere of our cellar. She is also an important critic who helps Honza fine-tune the wines to perfection.

  • Lenka loves flowers, so you may come across her local bouquets under the brand Vinařovo Kvítko.
  • She loves nature and enjoys riding her Vespa or snowboarding.
  • Wine tip: Her clear choice is our sparkling wine.

Our Future

  • Honzík: A winemaker through and through. He helps his dad in the cellar and during harvest, but his main responsibility is his own "business" — selling homemade grape lemonade that kids (and adults) have fallen in love with. In his free time you’ll find him playing football, cycling or skiing.
  • Julinka: She makes sure our winery blooms and shines — our chief decorator, and an invaluable (if sometimes fleeting) helper during harvest. She loves dancing, painting and cycling.
  • Their recommendation: Our grape must, without a doubt!

Our Family. Your Experiences. Real Wine.

Winemaking for us is not just a job — it is our life. Every bottle carries our story, our joy, our effort, and the tranquillity of the Zaječí vineyards.

When you come to taste with us, you will not be just customers but guests of our family. Join us to share our journey, enrich yourselves with shared experiences, and savour truly authentic wine.

Come and experience a genuine piece of South Moravia.
