Moravia is a historical region in central Europe that served as the centre of the kingdom of Bohemia in the 11th century. In the 20th century it became part of the modern state of Czechoslovakia and subsequently of the Czech Republic.
The Nestarec’s are in the village of Velke Bilovice, located in the southern part of Moravia, 15km north of the Austrian border. A region rich in agriculture, Moravia is noted for its viticulture, with 94% of the Czech Republic's vineyards here it is the centre of the countries wine region. Milan’s path began with the family vineyards in 2008, but it was to take until 2015 that Milan’s style was to become noticed, and the business would grow.
Nestarec now have 30 hectares under vine, spread across 13 sites. The wide selection of varieties includes Pinot Blanc, Gewürztraminer, Müller Thurgau, Pálava (Muller Thurgau x Roter Traminer), Dornfelder, Regent, Pinot Noir, Blaufränkisch, Neuburger and Welschriesling.
A curious thinker, Milan isn’t afraid to experiment. He recognises that the wines at the beginning of his journey are very different to those he makes now. In his twenties he liked to push boundaries, now mid 30 he makes wines in the style that suits the fruit and the vineyard. Wines he wants to drink. Ultimately, the wine must speak for itself.

We don’t tell you what to drink. You don’t need to know your varietals, regions or vintages, and you certainly don’t need to pretend you do. Tell us what you like, hate, what you’ve tried or curious about — we’ll take it from there. Sometimes the best bottle is the one you didn’t know you wanted.
