This is an interesting expression of our fave Turkish grape. Much more ripe, with dark cherries instead of the usual raspberry/strawberry. Plus maple and chocolate notes, and I swear bacon on the finish at first, but that dissipated after an hour open. Altogether lovely, but as usual for the region, sadly much too expensive for what you get. — 7 years ago

Dark straw yellow yellow. Aromas of orange, vanilla pudding, lemon custard and white flowers. Medium acidity and a gorgeously creamy mouthfeel. Flavors of orange, vanilla and walnuts. The finish is spicy, a little oaky and has an uplift of acidity. Something that Chardonnay lovers need to try! — 9 years ago

Vakti zamanında topraklarımızda yetişen 400 üzüm çeşidinden geriye kalan nadir türlerden biri 'Kalecik Karası'yla başlayan hikayesi ile, yerel üzümleri dünyaya taşıyan Vinkara bence hala hakettiği yerde değil. Öyle ki bu işe gönül vermesinden yıllar sonra dahi hala kar beklemiyoruz diyebilen sevgili Gürsel Ailesi, Ankara'daki arazisine pek çokları gibi inşaat dikebilirdi pek ala, ama bağı bahçeyi, zor olanı, emek isteyeni tercih etti ki bizim de lezzetli şaraplarımız olabildi. Afiyetle içebilelim diye. Şerefinize. — 10 years ago

Tasty Turkish wine. Close to a Gamey or lighter Pinot Noir. Great fruit and structure. Brought to us from the UK by a Harvest 2013 intern who came to visit. Hard to get here but if you find it, it's worth the $17. — 11 years ago

First Turkish wine I've had. Lovely Pinot noir like qualities: sour cherry, pop in your mouth strawberry and bright acidity. A summer red as its light in body and could take a slight chilling down. Reminds me a bit of a Beaujolais. — 9 years ago

Başarılı bir rose. Burunda şeftali ve pamuk şekeri kokusu hakim. Fiyatı biraz daha uygun olsa tüm yaz içilecek ferahlatıcı bir rose — 10 years ago

Another succesful Vinolus.
They are brave to blend to "Kalecik Karasi" Turkish Central Anatolian grade with Tempranillo.
Good job — 11 years ago
