Over the years their import company had become one of the leading fine wine importers and distributors in the Turkey. Through their experience as wine importer, they knew that one day Turkish indigenous varieties would be in demand by the international wine world. Indigenous varieties were planted in the Aegean region, such as Sultaniye, Yapıncak, Çalkarası, and Karasakız, and Bordeaux varieties were planted near İzmir.

Paşaeli Winery & Vineyards

Paşaeli Vineyards

Kaynaklar, İzmir
Serez vineyard has a stony, gravely and clay red soil at an altitude of 235 meters. This altitude gives the possibility of day and night temperature differences during late August and early September, namely during the harvest period. It ensures that the grapes retain their acidity while reaching sugar and phenolic maturity. As a result, concentrated, full bodied and fruity, but at the same time balanced and elegant wines can be produced.
This vineyard was planted in 2002, a single vineyard of 4 hectares near Kaynaklar village of Buca District of İzmir with varietals of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Petit Verdot, appropriate for a typical Bordeaux blend…

Şarköy, Tekirdağ

Şarköy vineyard has deep, well drained loamy soil with medium lime content (with an ideal pH for vine growing). It is 3 km inland from the Sea of Marmara facing directly the Sea and its winds. It is at 200 meters above sea level with a gentle slope that allows good drainage.This vineyard has 50 plus year “old vines” that were planted in late 1960’s with Yapıncak variety which is an indigenous variety to Thrace in Turkey-in-Europe. 
Gedik, Çanakkale 

The vineyards surrounding the village generally run from 300 meters to 600 meters above sea level. And almost all of them face towards to south varying from south-east to south to south-west.

Hoşköy, Tekirdağ

Hoşköy vineyards has partly clay and limy soil with high mineral content. They are at altitudes of 140 to 160 meters, and open to the winds blowing from Sea of Marmara. Thus, grapes stay “cool” during late August and early September and retain their acidity. Therefore it produce concentrated, full bodied and fruit driven big wines, but also balanced and elegant.
