Contexto cultural
In Moravia, white wine is often served in 'sklípky' (cellars). It's common to drink it while singing traditional folk songs. The hospitality is legendary. While Bohemia is beer-focused, Prague has a thriving wine bar scene where 'bílé víno' from around the world is celebrated alongside local varieties. Slovakia shares a very similar wine culture with the Czech Republic. The phrase is 'biele víno' in Slovak, nearly identical and used in the same social contexts. The 'Heuriger' culture in Austria is the direct cousin of the Moravian 'sklípek'. They share many white wine varieties like Grüner Veltliner (Veltlínské zelené).
Order by the 'deci'
In Czechia, wine is often ordered by deciliters. 'Dvě deci bílého' means 0.2L of white wine.

Remember that 'víno' is neuter. Using 'bílý' (masculine) is a very common giveaway that you are a beginner.
