Tasting Different Turkish Wine Grapes

Updated: Jul 26, 2023

Here's an overview of quite a few Turkish wine grape varieties you might not know about. I touch on some of Turkey's unique Wine grape varieties such as Boğazkere, Öküzgözü, Çal Karası and a few others. Take a glance, you'll also see some wine tasting locations near Pamukkale and near Alacati.




I also contribute to the Turkey Travel Planner website - a great place for general travel information to Turkey.


The Turkish blends I mentioned are Emir & Narince for the white wine blend, and öküzgözü and boğazkere for the red wine blends.
