Philosophy of the Winery

The Obelisk winery holds a deep respect for the wisdom of our ancestors which is expressed in the Latin words "filein sofia".

The owner of the winery František Fabičovic has been inspired by the period of cultural prosperity of the ancient Greek and Roman civilizations, which, historians called classical antiquity.

The Obelisk Winery follows the advanced wine-making tradition of the aristocratic Liechtenstein family, which is closely connected with the town of Valtice, and continues with the restoration of landscape in the meandering river Thaya (Dyje) at the owner´s Obelisk game reserve.

„Wine is like life. Beautiful, passionate, sensual but sometimes bitter and ruthless heartless. It leads us through its pitfalls in and it is a silent witness of important events. Wine embraces all human senses and desires. It is poetry for the taste buds and the balm of the soul. It´s for a unique way of life. That's why the Obelisk Winery is here.“
