Points : 7,5/10 Price : 67 TL Nif Blush Cabernet Sauvignon Grenache 2015 : Nif is a very interesting winery which is producing very interesting and original wines. They are one of the few to use Italian grapes for example. Even if this rosé is not exactly my kind of rosé, it really is original….

Suvla rosé 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Karasakız
Points : 6,5/10 Price : 55 TL Suvla rosé 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Karasakız : Suvla winery is making really good wines but I’m not a big fan of this rosé. The light reddish pink colour of this wine was for me an indication of its medium dry taste. Alcohol is quite high for a rosé…

Yedi Bilgeler Phytagoras Reserve 2013 Malbec Cabernet Sauvignon Syrah Merlot
Points : 8/10 Price : 90 TL Yedi Bilgeler Phytagoras Reserve 2013 : This blend made with Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah and Merlot is very enjoyable.
