Šobes, Historic vineyard track in Podmolí, Czech Republic

Šobes is a vineyard track situated on a rocky promontory alongside the Dyje River, with south-facing slopes positioned at around 332 meters elevation within Podyjí National Park. The steep terrain and exposed position on the river valley define the appearance of this winemaking zone.

The south slope was planted as a vineyard by the Bruck Monastery in the Middle Ages and became one of the most important wine sites around Znojmo. In 1837 Gregor Wolny called the wine from the Schobes hill the noblest in the whole country, and in the 19th century it went to the Austrian imperial court and leading Viennese taverns. Znovín Znojmo bought just under 7 ha from Podmolí in 1995; the village's 2007 challenge failed before the Constitutional Court in August 2011.

The name Šobes (German Schobes) is used for the promontory and its wine; the south slope has been planted with vines since the Middle Ages, and almost every house in Podmolí owns a share in the vineyard. Riesling and Ruländer are the main varieties grown.

The vineyard lies in the Devět mlýnů section of Podyjí National Park, reachable on foot via the old Roman Road from Podmolí or more easily from Hnanice. The Roman Road runs along the ridge between Hnanice and Podmolí. A viewpoint facing Šobes stands near Hnanice at Devět mlýnů.

The vineyard's wines reached the Austrian imperial court and leading Viennese restaurants in the 19th century, and Gregor Wolny in 1837 called the wine from the Schobes hillside the noblest in the whole country.
