First bottles of Saint Martin’s wine opened in Brno

Thousands of people gathered on Freedom Square in Brno on Friday to attend the opening of this year’s first bottles of Saint Martin’s wine. The day of Saint Martin, which is celebrated in the country on November 11, has become an occasion for winemakers to present their young wines. Events are taking place all around the country. In Prague the main festivities will be held in Náměstí Jiřího z Poděbrad. Over two million bottles of Saint Martin’s wine will be available on the market this year.
