Mělník is the wine capital of Bohemia, and the castle has had a winery since the fourteenth century. Beneath the courtyard open vaulted cellars that can be visited for 70 CZK. The experience is in the sommelier-led tasting in the St Wenceslas cellar, the oldest, among century-old barrels: the light white Ludmila, varietals from the house's own vineyards, a sparkling wine and the pinot noir, the grape of Mělník since the time of Charles IV, from the organic St Ludmila vineyard. Tastings are booked by phone or email. Afterwards, the castle shop sells the bottles.
