Points : 7,5/10 Price : 55 TL Chamlija Papaskarasi Blanc de noirs 2017 : Again a fantastic wine created by Chamlija winery! This white wine made with Papaskarasi red grape truly amazed me although my first experience of Blanc de Noirs (not from Chamlija) at Sommelier’s sélection was not a great memory. The smell is…

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…
