Fine ageing potential. Star of the great Turkish reds on the arid terroirs of south-east Anatolia (Diyarbakır region, Tigris valley), often blended with öküzgözü to soften its structure. Autochthonous Anatolian variety, its name means "throat-burner" in Turkish.

The word of the wine: Serious
A Bordeaux term for small pebbles from the Pyrenees, eroded, rounded and transported by the Garonne to Aquitaine.
