Visit Moravian Tuscany
Events
Summer is one of the best times to experience the wine culture of Moravian Tuscany and the neighbouring region, in the South-East of the Czech Republic. From early July until the end of August – and in some places even into September – wine events take place throughout the region, giving visitors the chance to taste local wines directly with the winemakers in their cellars.
