The Embassy of the Czech Republic in London, in cooperation with the Czech Ministry of Agriculture, is pleased to present Czech and Moravian wineries and would like to invite British wine and alcohol vendors and distributors, merchants, sommeliers, hotel network operators, wine shops and restaurants, journalists and bloggers to meet the wineries in a B2B presentation of their wines.  

The event is free to attend and a Czech buffet lunch and snacks will be served throughout the day.

Czech Wine Day is part of the Czech Embassy’s Economic Diplomacy Projects.

Why Should You Attend

Czech wines are not as well known as are Czech beers but are slowly making their mark in the UK and internationally due to their quality and taste. In 2018, Moravian and Czech wines brought home over 900 medals (180 more than in 2017) of various colours, the most notable being the platinum awarded at the 2018 Decanter World Wine Awards in London. Add to this the 16 double golds from New York, San Francisco and Israel, 5 championship titles and, in San Francisco, the ‘Best Late Harvest Wine’ category prize. This is a great opportunity to meet the wineries first hand and sample their award winning wines. This is the year to Think Czech while Thinking Wine.
