The ČZU winery has been operating here since 1980, but the first mention of wine processing dates back to 1628. The most successful vine clones suitable for the Mělník area were used for planting the vineyards. The planting material for the vineyards was mainly imported from the Rhine basin wine-growing areas, which are climatically identical to the conditions in Mělník, which was also the purpose of the research. Currently, the primary task is the representation of the ČZU in Prague, the practical teaching of students of various disciplines, the possibility for students to carry out practical experiments in the creation of bachelor and diploma theses and the achievement of economic self-sufficiency. The centre grows grapes and fruit on an area of about 20 ha of land, including 12.75 ha of vineyards, which produce 30 000 litres of wine per year - 35 000 bottles.
