Rosé Bočky VOC 2017
J Stávek Winery

Víno J Stávek has roots dating back to 1898. It was rebranded to the current winemaker’s name in 2013. It is a founding member VOC Modré Hora and specializes in Rosé, Cuvée, Frankovka, and Fortified Wines. It was named Czech Winery of the Year in 2017. The winery is located in the sub-region Velke Pavlovice | Moravia.

The current winemaker is Jan Stávek, great grandson of the founder. He is a founding member of the “Mladí Vinaři” or Young Winemakers Association of the Czech Republic. Jan Stávek was named Czech Winemaker of the Year 2020.

This VOC wine is 100% St. Laurent, derived from 50 year old vines in the “Bočky” vineyard plot. The attractive raspberry color with ruby shades are attributed to a longer maceration of the grape skins in the must.

About Us

We’re John and Brenda Steinsky from PEI. John is a proud first-generation Czech Canadian. Since May 2018, he has served as an Honorary Consul for the Czech Republic in PEI and New Brunswick, also covering Nova Scotia and Newfoundland in an “acting” capacity. In addition to providing consular services to Czech nationals in these provinces, John was keen to promote “economic diplomacy” with Atlantic Canadians, by sharing Czech goods and services they otherwise might not have access to.

Beer and wine seemed like good fits given the proliferation of craft brewing in the Maritimes and local interest in "new old-world wines." Czech wine is often described as "the best wines you’ve never heard of." We’re hoping to change that!
