Tradition, Horses & The Story Behind The Name
The story of Kovačič Tourist Farm is deeply connected with horses, tradition, and family values. The equestrian club was founded in 1996 and has successfully brought together horse lovers, riders, and nature enthusiasts for generations. The name Carlo Frost originates from a Swedish trotter stallion that became a symbol of the Kovačič family and their passion for horses. Today, this heritage continues through horseback riding experiences, countryside activities, and authentic hospitality that allow guests to experience the true spirit of rural life near Maribor.
Rhein Riesling And Muscat
The cluster of Rhine Riesling is small to medium-sized, compact, cylindrical in shape and sometimes branched. The round berry has a green-yellow skin and sweet and aromatic juice. It produces a fine, elegant, noble, rich wine. With the right amount of alcohol and enhanced acidity and the unobtrusive right residue of unfermented sugar, it produces a harmonious, distinctive, slightly refined aromatic wine.
Muscat adds an aromatic flower, the scent of fresh grapes and a sweeter taste to this wine. It is a semi-dry wine, offered in Carlo frost bottles.
Homemade Food
We will serve you homemade cold cuts with tuna meat, homemade sausages, jam, pate and seasonal vegetables from the home garden. We are sure that you will be delighted with the taste of tuna dishes, as the recipe for its preparation is at least 50 years old. Homemade bread is also particularly delicious.
You can combine the experience of homemade food with a visit to the farm, horseback riding or a vacation.
The Kovačič farm is part of the tourist offer of Hotel Frost, where you can upgrade the experience with accommodation, wellness and complete relaxation in nature.
Welschriesling
The cluster of Welschriesling is cylindrical in shape, small to medium in size and very compact. It often has a characteristic secondary cluster in addition to the main cluster. The berries are small and round, usually green to green-yellow in color, speckled with brown spots where they are exposed to the sun.
The wine has a fairly high level of acidity, which makes it suitable for aging. It is a wine with a lower alcohol content, but at the right time of harvest we achieve the right acidity, which gives the wine the right freshness, liveliness and harmony. It is one of the most widespread varieties in Styria.
Guests call it “spritzer wine”…
