Melnik - the castle of the queens

The miller is the castle of queens. Queens do not drink beer. After all, the queen looks ridiculous with a juicy mug of beer in her hand (and chips in the other), and with a hopsy philanthropic smile in all her teeth. It's not a queen, it's a Schweik! Not good, Mother, not good. But with a glass of wine in an elegantly bent spruce pen - quite another thing. In general, even Saint Lyudmila, at a time when the saint was not yet at all, decided to cultivate the most graceful gift of nature in her estate under personal supervision. That's how I looked, cultivated and wine the noblest world showed. The unanswered question is whether the princess trampled grapes for wine with her own fir sheaths, but this drink won the hearts of the noble knights for ever and ever.

Her grandson, Vaclav, was also a saint, a man of great soul! He also had a hand in wine, that is, in business, in the sense of winemaking. Here is the tradition of growing grapes on this land. Wine was made, made, and given to try, while they like to tell how Princess Lyudmila during a feast about the baptism of her son chose to cringe with a noble drink. This led her to take the culture of wine under her care.

We will walk through the rooms of the castle, listen to their history from the beginning to today, look at the interior items and visit the legendary wine cellar, where the uncle-winemaker with enthusiastic enthusiasm will describe to you the difficult process of preparing Melnitsky wine, by the way, the best in the world, according to him.

Yes, let Melnik town is small, but cozy, cute and very kind. And of course, typical Central European architecture: houses with red tiles, narrow cobbled streets and a black Gothic temple. As well as cafes with home furnishings, kind as the mother of the waitress, and delicious food. Welcome to the Czech Republic!
