Points : 8/10 Price : 90 TL This 2016 vintage is classy and elegant as a Viognier should be. The nose has white flower, apricot, quince and bergamot aromas. It doesn’t show its potential at once so make sure to drink it not too cold. Even if the amount of alcohol is high, 14,5%, you…

Château Murou Sémillon Rezerv 2017
Points : 9/10 Price : 100 TL Once again I’m amazed by Chateau Murou with this fantastic Sémillon! Let’s taste it together : On the nose, mango, lemon, honey, apricot and candied fruit aromas are like a feast for your senses without being too powerful but still delicate.

Yanık Ülke Gewürztraminer 2016
Points : 7/10 Price : 80 TL Yanık Ülke Winery is not afraid of experimenting and being the only one to use grapes such as Gewürztraminer here. On the nose I detected lychee and tangerine flavours plus some floral notes (rose). This wine is slightly oily with a medium acidity and minerality. Exotic spices can…
