Suvla 2015 Chardonnay

Points : 7/10 Price : 65 TL at carrefour Gourmet but 90 TL at Milano Gourmet… Crazy! Suvla Chardonnay 2015 : when I bought this bottle, I was far from expecting something that good for such a price. The nose immediately is appealing with aromas of citrus, butter and brioche. In the mouth it doesn’t…

Sevilen 900 2016 Füme Blanc

Points : 8,25/10 Price : 95 TL Sevilen 900 Fumé Blanc 2016 : Not your typical Fume Blanc (Sauvignon Blanc) here but still I really liked it. The nose is fruity and gourmand with aromas of peach, litchi and cherry. It goes on with flavours of green apple, apricot and pineapple. A very surprising wine,…

Kayra Vintage 2014 Sauvignon Blanc

Points : 6,5/10 but the 2016 deserves 8/10 Price : Around 90 TL Kayra Vintage Sauvignon Blanc 2014 : this Sauvignon Blanc is kind of disappointing. It’s an easy wine to drink, nothing bad about it but it’s like something missing in comparaison with the 2016 vintage I had the pleasure to taste at Sommelier’s…

Chamlija Reserve 2015 Alvarinho

Points : 8,5/10 Price : 75 TL at the Chamlija’s winery I love Albariño, the Spanish grapevine for its acidity and floral flavours. If Chamlija’s Albariño is typical, this other bottle with a Portuguese name is on a completely different level. This is a very classy wine. Albariño goes perfectly well with a mild curry…

Kayra Vintage 2014 Barrel Fermented Chardonnay

Points : 8/10 Price : Around 90/100 TL Kayra Vintage Barrel Fermented Chardonnay 2014 : very impressed by this wine. Beautiful golden colour. Flavours are powerful with peach, nectarine, yellow apple and vanilla. The texture is creamy. Very long length. Wow! This is not a wine for an aperitif but for a heavy meal with…

Umurbey 2015 Sauvignon Blanc Semillon

Points : 7/10 Price : Around 70 TL Umurbey Sauvignon Blanc Semillon 2015 : those two grapes are often used in the Bordeaux region and maybe even more in the new world (US, Australia for example). They can really go well together. I must say i was quite satisfied by this Umurbey 2015. Beautiful colour,…
