Žametna Črnina—Wine World Champion

Žametna Črnina claimed world champion title at the recent international Ljubljana wine competition, winning in a fierce competition against a number of sparkling wines, from Argentina, France, to New Zealand.

Based on the traditional method, the sparkling wine was made in Ptujska klet under the Pullus brand by oenologist Bojan Kobal, who literally grew up with Žametna Črnina in his home town of Sevnica. This is all the more remarkable if taking into account that Pullus sparkling wine, which Ptujska klet presented at the Gornja Radgona fair, is entirely made up of Žametna Črnina, a grape variety native to Slovenia, which thrives predominantly in the Dolenjska region.
