"I started my career in Blatnicka, at a winemaker where I worked as a sales representative. The firm was under pressure from suppliers who would not allow it to get in direct touch with customers. But our customers are our partners. We have to communicate with them and respect their requirements. That’s why my wife and I founded VINO HRUSKA, a company of our own with a new business model that features a direct path to our new and existing customers. I have faith they’re satisfied with our service."

History
Our tradition of winemaking extends all the way back to 1842, when the Hruska family was first recorded making wine in Blatnice. In those days, Tomas Hruska cultivated 4 hectares of grapes, the first in what was to be a long line of viticulturists passing their treasured knowledge and experience of winemaking down through the generations.
A watershed moment for the family vineyards came with the technique of pruning the vine to a single goyot with ten buds.

Design and Style
VINO HRUSKA’s design combines simplicity and colour contrast for a feeling of elegance. Our style consists in natural materials coupled with metal elements and warm lighting. Wood predominates, usually distressed massive, and the metal used is mostly stainless steel, introducing a note of elegance and modernity. Stone is a natural addition to both the interior and exterior, lending a feeling of comfort and relaxation in combination with white candles of various sizes. I like to put warm colours together to create an aura of calm, contrasted with dark colours for elegance. The combo generates the energy we need. Overall, the VINO HRUSKA style is simple and radiates warmth.“
