The wine region of Denizli
Wine region of western Turkey (inland Aegean), Çal high plateau (700-1,200 m) supplying one fifth of national wine grapes. Volcanic soils and red mineral earths. Signature Çalkarası native variety: lively rosés and light reds with notes of strawberry, cherry, raspberry, pomegranate, citrus and mineral touch, taut acidity and fresh palate — the regional specialty. Also white Sultaniye, firm Cabernet Sauvignon, peppery Syrah, full Chardonnay, lively Sauvignon.
The wine region of Ege Bolgesi
Turkey's largest wine region (Aegean Sea, ~52% of production), ancient cradle of Smyrna and Ephesus, hot Mediterranean climate on clay-limestone and schist soils. Sultaniye is the signature white king (seedless grape, ~95% of vines at Manisa): lively and light with citrus, green apple, white flowers and honey touch, from dry to semi-sweet. Bornova Misketi (Muscat) floral and aromatic, Çalkarası as spiced rosé. International Cabernet and Syrah.
The word of the wine: Performance
Quantity of grapes harvested per hectare. In AOC, the average yield is limited on the proposal of the appellation syndicate, validated by the Inao. The use of high-performance plant material (especially clones) and better control of vine diseases have increased yields. This is not without consequences on the quality of the wines (dilution) and on the state of the market (too much wine). We must not over-simplify: low yields are not synonymous with quality, and it is often in years with generous harvests that we find the greatest vintages (1982 and 1986 in Bordeaux, 1996 in Champagne, 1990 and 2005 in Burgundy...).
