Discover the grape variety: Kalecik karasi
Supple, elegant reds with a light ruby robe, fine tannins and fresh acidity, showing delicate aromas of strawberry, raspberry, red cherry, rose, sweet spices and floral notes. Airy, refreshing palate, compared to pinot noir for its finesse. Star of the Kalecik slopes along the Kızılırmak river near Ankara, one of the great ambassadors of the Turkish wine revival. Autochthonous Anatolian variety, saved from extinction by Ankara University in the 1970s.

The wine region of Columbia Gorge Washington
American AVA (2004) straddling Oregon and Washington around Hood River, "world of wine in 40 miles" with extreme climatic diversity (cool maritime west vs arid east), volcanic soils and loess. Pinot Noir is the signature red (most planted) on the cool side: ethereal and fruity with cherry, raspberry, undergrowth and spiced notes. Full Pinot Gris, taut Riesling and floral Gewürztraminer as whites. Structured Cabernet, Syrah and Zinfandel in the east.
The wine region of Washington
2nd US producer by volume, on the arid, sunny Columbia Valley. Star Cabernet Sauvignon (~60% of reds): powerful and structured with signature notes of blackcurrant, blackberry, cedar, dry herbs and graphite, firm tannins. Fleshy, peppery Syrah (black fruits, smoked meat). Round, fruity Merlot, historic mineral Riesling (dry and off-dry), precise Chardonnay and ample Sémillon.
The word of the wine: Tastevin
Metal cup, wide and of low height, being used to mirror and taste the wine. Still used in wine brotherhoods for its emblematic and folkloric character, the tastevin has been replaced by the various tasting glasses.
