Points : 6,5/10 Price : 34 TL Arda Shiraz rosé 2017 : it’s the first time I’m drinking a bottle of wine produced by this boutique winery located in Thrace. I like the design on the bottle but the wine itself is definitely not my kind of rosé. I’m not sure that Shiraz or Syrah…

Vino Dessera 2016 Blush Shiraz Kalecik Karası Cabernet Sauvignon
Points : 6/10 Price : 46 TL I hate to say bad things about wine, it’s not my policy here. That’s why you will rarely find the wines I didn’t like on this page. I just want to share with you a big disappointment about this rosé made by a quite good Turkish winery. The…
Urlice Reserve 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Syrah
Points : 8,5/10 Price : 87 TL Urlice Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon Syrah 2012 : I must say I hadn’t been so impressed by a Turkish red wine for a while. This little winery located near Izmir and not far from a bigger player (Urla winery) is responsible for it. What a beautiful smell! A sensual…
Kocabağ 2015 Emir
Points : 8,25/10 Price : 63 TL Kocabağ Emir 2015 : First expérience here. It’s my first bottle from Kocabağ winery and my first bottle of Emir (a local white grape) not blended with something else. It’s not easy to find bottles from this winery located in Cappadocia. The only place I saw them so…
Turasan Seneler 2015 Chardonnay
Points : 6/10 Price : Around 75 TL Turasan Seneler Chardonnay 2015 : I love Turasan Seneler red wine série but this Chardonnay is not exactly on the same level. The first impression is nice with a quite aromatic nose : white flowers, peanuts and brioche. In the mouth it doesn’t lack flavours either. It…
Umurbey Blush 2016 Shiraz
Points : 5,5/10 Price : Around 65 TL Umurbey Blush Shiraz 2016 : if Umurbey Sauvignon Blanc is one of my favourite Sauvignon Blanc in Turkey, this rosé is a big disappointment. Not very aromatic, a kind of semi-sweet rosé wine with quite boring red fruit flavours. Not much acidity and a short finish. I…
