Product Details

This is a blend of 60% Grenache, 30% Syrah, and 10% Mourvèdre, sourced from organic and biodynamic vineyards, located on the shores of the Marmara Sea in the Thrace region of Turkey. The grapes undergo fermentation until the wines are at less than 0.5 g/L of residual sugar. This happens over a period of 2 to 6 weeks in stainless-steel tanks, followed by malolactic fermentation. The wine then goes into French oak, about one quarter of which is new, for anywhere from 18 to 48 months.

The Thracian Valley includes three countries, Turkey, Greece and Bulgaria. In Turkey, the Thracian Valley can also be referred to as Marmara, a named shared by the sea that separates it from the rest of the country. The Turkish and Greek portions of the Thracian Valley are considered Mediterranean grape growing climates, while Bulgaria is a continental climate. Scientific studies prove that the history of wine dates back 15,000 years to the Hittites who lived in Central Anatolia. modern day Turkey, a place believed to be the birthplace of winemaking.

"It's a wine that's well worth seeking out. A blend of Grenache, Syrah and Mourvedre from clay soils along the Mediterranean Sea in Turkey, it boasts a stunning bouquet of blackberries, leather, spice box, cedar, and flowers. Complex and medium-bodied, with an elegant, seamless texture and fine tannins, it's a remarkable wine."
