What Vinné sklepy Kutná Hora s.r.o. does

Vinné sklepy Kutná Hora s.r.o. is a Czech family-owned biodynamic winery founded in 2002 and headquartered in Kutná Hora, a UNESCO World Heritage city. It operates 44 hectares of vineyards across four historic sites — U Všech svatých, Pod Barborou, Nad Kapličkou, and U Kačiny — and produces estate-grown wines exclusively from its own grapes without chemical inputs. Its customers are premium individual wine consumers in the Czech Republic, corporate clients purchasing experiential events and custom-labeled bottles, and fine-dining establishments; nine of its wines are listed in the MICHELIN Guide for the Czech Republic (ESSENS, Field, Entree, Vallmo, Taro, Ambiente Kuchyň, Alma, Kohout NA VÍNĚ) and Grandhotel Pupp in Karlovy Vary.

The company's production system is built on a Demeter-certified biodynamic method — the first and only such full certification in the Czech and Slovak Republic since 2014, combined with BIO certification (CZ-BIO-002). Viticulture relies on self-produced herbal extracts for vine protection, in-house compost and biochar production, green-manure cropping, terraced swales for water retention and climate adaptation, spontaneous fermentation, and traditional kvevri (clay vessel) winemaking in the cellars beneath the St. Ursula Monastery. The portfolio is structured in three ranges: TOP Schwarzenbergská řada (premium wines selected with co-owner Karel Schwarzenberg and carrying his family crest), Řada Classic (standard biodynamic wines), and Wine PUNK (PET-NAT, canned wines, and Riesling spritzers aimed at younger and more accessible occasions). The estate is designated a demonstration ecofarm by the Czech Ministry of Agriculture.

Revenue is generated through four channels: direct wine sales via a proprietary e-commerce platform (eshop.vinokutnahora.cz) and an on-site wine shop at the St. Ursula Monastery; paid wine tasting experiences (390 Kč–2,000 Kč per person) including small, large, enogastronomic, and cellar-master formats; B2B corporate events covering team building, vineyard tours, kvevri experiences, and custom-labeled wines for groups of 10–60+; and branded apparel merchandise sold through the same e-commerce storefront. Wine bottles are priced 90 Kč–1,850 Kč, with TOP Schwarzenberg wines at the upper end and Karlův Punk canned wines at entry level. Operations run with a lean headcount of seven employees and a domestic Czech distribution footprint, supported by awards across Vinařství roku (finalist 2019, 2022, 2024, 2025), Japan Women's Wine Awards (Diamond Trophy, Best Woman Winemaker 2026), Sélections Mondiales des Vins (Gold Medal), and Salon vína České republiky (Silver 2026).
