Tarnów Wineries & Enotourism

As depressing as the harsh reality of climate change can be, there’s always a silver lining somewhere, or you might say a burgundy one in this case. As the Polish climate has become increasingly mild with less frosts and shorter winters, the Polish wine industry has bloomed, with Małopolska emerging as Poland’s wine country.

Tarnów, as it happens, is known as the ‘Polish hotspot’ (‘Polski biegun ciepła’) not simply because that was the best catchphrase the suits on the tourist board could come up with, but also because Tarnów has the warmest average temperature in Poland, the country’s most sunny days, the longest summers and the least number of windy days. This is especially true of the Pogórze region just south of Tarnów, which possesses a microclimate ideal for the cultivation of grapes used for winemaking. Essentially the Polish Napa Valley, the region features some lovely countryside and enough vineyards offering tours and tastings to put together a nice ruddy road trip.
