Viniculture in the Nitra Region has a long-term tradition and represents a certain benefit for the economic development of the region. More than 45% of the area of Slovakia’s vineyards is located in the Nitra Region. The region is characterized by the highest number of viniculture municipalities, which represents more than 37% of the total number of viniculture municipalities of Slovakia. The aim of the paper was based on selected indicators (vineyard area, grape production and the proportion of vineyard area from agricultural land) to analyse the viniculture in the Nitra Region. We used several methods in processing the observed issues, such as method of analysis, historical-geographical, comparative, statistical and mathematical method. We interpreted the obtained statistical data graphically and cartographically. The territory of the Nitra Region intervenes 3 viniculture region - Nitra (Nitrianska), South-Slovakian (Južnoslovenská) and Central-Slovakian (Stredoslovenská). More than 65% is occupied by the Nitra wine region. Out of the total number of 354 municipalities in the Nitra Region, there are 271 viniculture municipalities, which belong to 18 viniculture districts. In the observed period of 2008-2019, the total area of vineyards decreased by about 30%, the area of nascent vineyards by more than 20% and grape production by about 17%. The highest share of vineyards from agricultural land, more than 6%, is achieved by viniculture municipalities in the south of the Nitra Region, in the southern part of the Nové Zámky district and in the south-eastern part of the Komárno district.
