The fertile plains of central part of the Moravia wine region, stretching from Brno to Břeclav, are one of the hottest and most sunny points of the Czech Republic. Thanks to ideal position, favourable climatic and soil conditions the wine was grown here as soon as in the Great Moravian era. The region is a heart of red wine growing in Moravia, mainly such varieties as Frank and Blue Portugal varieties.
