About the product: The Frelih wine cellar is a family winery in the heart of Šentrupert, opposite a late Gothic church in the city center. Frelih vineyards are distinguished by their sunny location, quality soil and favorable climate. They grow traditional vines, whose grapes they turn into wines of the best quality. In addition to Cviček od fare, which was the first cviček registered and awarded at the Decanter wine competition, the Frelih Wine Cellar is also distinguished by various sparkling wines obtained by the classical method, younger wines and wines matured in oak barrels.
Kappelman sparkling wine grapes are harvested before full maturity, which means that the juice has lower sugars and higher acids, which is desirable in sparkling wines. For the sparkling wine, take the first juice that flows from the press. After fermenting the must, the wine matures for one year in a stainless steel tank. Sparkling wine is made according to the classic method - the second fermentation and maturation on yeast takes place in bottles for at least 3 years, which leads to the formation of mature, tertiary aromas. When the yeasts die, the sparkling wine is put to spin. The precipitate is collected on the stopper, removed, after which a minimum amount of liqueur is added to correct the sugar level.
In 2015, Kappelman sparkling wine received the title of world champion in the Vino Ljubljana wine evaluation and bronze medals in the Decanter Asia, Decanter London and IWC London evaluations.
