  Disclaimer: This post includes wines received as a sample. All opinions are my own. Some time ago, Midin sent me several of the wines from their new vintage. I previously posted about the white wines so let's crack on now with the rosés! We all know that I have mixed thoughts about rosé wines. While I don't universally love them, I have come around them more over the years. I tend to prefer those with lighter colors, not necessarily because I like a lighter, Provence-style rosé, but because in Turkey, those are the "safer" ones. Many rosés here come in neon or otherwise impossibly pink colors.  Midin's rosés fall into a

  Holy cats July was miserable! Horrible, hot weather including the hottest day Istanbul has had in years. During which, no less, my precious wines and I were without power for almost 48 hours!

  Moldovan wine has been quietly moving into the Turkish wine market for a few years. Unsurprisingly, a fair amount from Purcari. The story of Chateau Purcari mirrors the story of Moldovan wine itself. In 1827 Tzar Nicholas I issued a special decree granting Purcari the status of the first specialized winery in Bessarabia. Run by German immigrants for most of the nineteenth century, the winery first achieved fame in 1878 when a bottle of Negru de Purcari won a gold medal at a Paris exhibition. Chateau Purcari went on to survive nationalization and the Soviets, several wars, and emerged into the new Republic of Moldova pretty much where

  How many times have I said that I'm not a pink fan? I think for five times I say that, at least two wines semi reverse my opinion! Despite not being a huge fan of it, I do have a rather large collection of rosé in the wine room. Partially because I do attempt to try all the new wines (if not new vintages) that come out here. And also, because I have learned, that as long as the wine isn't electric pink, there's a fair chance that it will be nice. When Akın Gürbüz released his new blush last year, I happily snapped up a bottle. Because a)

  It sure felt like spring had sprung during the second half of February. Even my crocuses are blooming! But my experience both here and being from a northern state says that we shouldn't get too comfortable yet and that winter may once again rear its cold, snowy head. It likely won't be pretty when it does! Especially not for me as I've already been enjoying wine on my balcony.  What have I been drinking? Well, you'll have to check previous blog posts for that! What will I - and more importantly you! - be drinking this month? Just read on to find out! Aquarius (January 20 - February 18) Aquarius, do

  Every year - well every year that I remember - I like to do a quick review of the wines I posted about during the year that I most enjoyed, that most surprised me, etc. So with no further ado, let's jump into my favorite Turkish wines of 2022! My Favorite Sparkling Wines Sparkling wines are always going to be at the tippy top of my list! Not many new sparkling wines were released this year but, even if it were the only one, the Arcadia Pét-Nat Sauvignon Gris would still sit at the top of the tippy top.  Yaşasın is not new but it still makes my list. This year, I
