Turkish Culinary Art
“One of the most richly varied”
The Turkish cuisine is rich and varied, from Aegean olive oil based vegetarian cuisine to famous spicy kebabs of south-eastern Anatolia, from dough/pastry based boreks, raviolis, pides, to tandir (slow cooking style of lamb). The huge variety in Turkish cuisine is due to several factors. In summary, the variety of products offered by the lands of Asia and Anatolia, the interaction with numerous different cultures over a long history, the new tastes developed in the palace kitchens of the Hittites, Seljuk, Greeks, Persians, Roman, Byzantine and Ottoman empires have all played a part in shaping the new character of our culinary culture. Turkish Cuisine, which in general consists of dishes with sauces prepared with grains, various vegetables and some meat, soups, cold dishes cooked with olive oil, pastry dishes and dishes made from wild greens and herbs has also produced a series of health foods such as pekmez, yogurt, and bulgur. The eating habits of the Turks, which reflect the changing tastes from one location to the next, gain a new meaning and near-sacredness during special occasions, celebrations and ceremonies.

“from the Bronze Age to Antiquity”
The first traces of viticulture and winemaking in Anatolia date back 7,000 years. Wine had an indispensable role in the social lives of the oldest civilizations of Anatolia the Hattis and the Hittites. It was the primary libation offered to the gods during rituals attended by royalty and high governors. Provisions protecting viticulture in Hittite law, and the custom of celebrating each vintage with a holiday, suggest that wine was important to both ancient economies and ancient cultural practices.
The Phrygians Introduced Wine to Greek Colonists on Anatolia’s Western Flank
For the Phrygians, who lived in Anatolia after the Hittites, wine was an essential part of daily life and an important element in their diet along with olive oil, fish, and bread. The Phrygians introduced wine to Greek colonists on Anatolia’s western flank, and by the 6th century BC wine was being exported as far as France and Italy from trading and production centres such as Tabae (Tavas, near the present-day Pamukkale) and Klazomenai (near Urla) both in the southern Aegean region and Ainos (Enez) to the north. Knidos (today’s Datça), on the southwest Mediterranean coast, and the island of Rhodes were also leading centres for the wine trade. One of these early Anatolian grapes, Misket, became known as Muscat in Europe. Another variety from Smyrna (today’s Izmir), was used in the production of the famous wine of Pramnios, which is mentioned in Homer’s Iliad.

Wine Historyin Anatolia
“The Neolithic Period”
Vitis Vinifera’s Natural Distribution and Archaeological Discoveries.
According to Dr. Patrick E. McGovern, the Scientific Director of the Biomolecular Archaeology Laboratory for Cuisine, Fermented Beverages and Health at the University of Pennsylvania Museum in Philadelphia and to Dr. José Vouillamoz from University of Neuchâtel in Switzerland who specializes in the study of the origin andparentage of grape varieties through DNA typing (or genetic fingerprinting); they both show the South East part of Turkey as the origin of grape seeds and grape domestication dating back to 9.000 BC.
Turkey is situated between 30° and 50° latitudein the very Heart of the “Grand Terrain”.
“The Turkish Republic”There was a considerable amount of wine production before World War I and the War of Independence in Turkey. But wars affected production negatively, especially in the Thrace and Aegean regions.
The production of all alcoholic beverages went under the control of government monopoly in 1927, with the exception of wine, for which private production and the development of vineyards was still permitted. This was specifically done to develop and protect wine production. The only restriction, which in today’s terms could be called “controlled wine regions-appellation controllée”, was the permissions given to wine production on specific regions where wine grapes were being produced. In 1928 the government began to support wine producers with technical knowhow and semi-financial support. (There was also support for export tax exemptions and a support fee/kg).
M.Emile Bouffart was one of the first pioneering consultants who evaluated wines and the wine regions in Turkey, including advising on where to develop wineries. In 1946 there were 28 small sized wineries all around Turkey exploring the potential quality of wine production with different varieties and terroirs under the Government Monopoly.Marcel Biron was also one of the consultants working for the Government Monopoly and identifying different wine regions and wines in Turkey (1937-1947). The 1950’s government initiated French grape varieties for plantation in the Aegean and Thrace regions (Semillon, Clairette, Sylvaner, Gamay, Cinsaut, Pinot Noir and Cabernet Sauvignon are among the varieties planted and explored during these dates). The subsequent decrease in quality began with the non-implementation of this “controlled wine regions” regulation as well as political changes in the 1960’s. Private producers stayed in the market throughout this period, but remained relatively small in size. By the late 1980s, as the Turkish economy began to integrate with other global economies and deregulation became more prevalent, the tourism sector also began to develop, thus substantially boosting wine sales. This was the impetus for the wineries to invest in the latest technology, machineries, to develop their wineries, begin investment in their vineyards and plant international and local grape varieties to international quality standards.
“From the Ottoman Empire to the Turkish Republic”
Later still, Turkish tribes arrived in Anatolia from Central Asia and they, too, drank wine. Production continued even after Islam began to dominate the region, and a comfortable balance developed between Christian and Muslim residents: Christians, for the most part, produced the wine; both Christians and Muslims consumed it. During the long period of the Ottoman Empire (1299–1923), wine production and trade were carried out exclusively by non-Muslim minorities (Greeks, Armenians, Syrians, and others). However, what we today would call wine-bars, usually in Christian neighborhoods, were also patronized by Muslims.
During the Ottoman period, the general atmosphere of tolerance was interrupted from time to time by official prohibitions on the use and sale of alcohol. Wine-bars were forced to close and heavy sanctions, even death penalties, were applied to those who didn’t obey the new rules. The prohibitions were always short-lived, however each time they would be first loosened, then eventually lifted completely. This regular reversal of policy had an economic reason: the tax collected from wine sales was an important source of income for the Ottoman treasury, so any long-term banning of alcohol sales contradicted state interests. Even during periods of prohibition, vineyards were never uprooted: grape production was simply diverted to other types of consumption. A ready supply of grapes enabled wine production to recover rapidly after each hiatus.
Wine production reached record levels and alcohol prohibitions ceased during the second half of the 19th century, in the atmosphere of tolerance and freedom brought about by the Ottoman modernization movement. At the same time European vineyards were being devastated by an epidemic of phylloxera (a vine-attacking insect), reducing wine production dramatically. In order to meet the resulting surge in European demand, the Ottoman Empire’s wine exports increased substantially reaching 340 million litres in 1904.
Today
Facts and Figures about the Turkish Wine Market (2012)
The total alcoholic beverage production in Turkey is 1,043 mio litres.
Wine consumption constitutes 7% of total alcoholic beverage consumption. The others are: Beer 86%, Rakı 4% and Vodka 1%.
Turkey’s Wine Production is around 75 mio litres per year.
Wine exports constitute %4 of total production and by volume is 2.7 mio litres and by value € 7.200.000
Turkey ranks 6th in the world for grape production with 4.264.000 tonnes produced annually and is the 4th largest grape growing area with 505.000 ha after
Spain, France and Italy.
In Turkey around 2% of total grape production is used for wine making.
The consumption per capita is around 1 litre per annum.

General Information on Biological Diversity in TurkeyTurkey, bridging Europe, Asia and Africa, surrounded from 3 sides with seas of different ecological characteristics, with altitudes ranging from sea level to above 5000 meters resulting in a variety of climatic conditions through the country, has a biological wealth incomparable to any of the neighboring countries. The ecosystem mosaic of several different ecological characteristics provides nesting and breeding areas for thousands of fauna and flora species and their populations. Another factor that increases this wealth is that, two of the four migratory routes of West Palaearctic Region pass above Turkey.
There have been above 11000 plant species identified in Turkey, 3000 of those being endemic species. It is estimated that animal species are around 80000. Turkish nature also constitutes centers of origin and diversity of genetic resources.
Ecosystem DiversityTurkey has biogeographically different three regions which are Europe-Siberia, Iranian-Turan, and Mediterranean. These regions consist of different types of ecosystems with their transition zones. Economically the most important ecosystems are steps, since most of the crops grown as a food supply were derived from wild species. Wetlands, as favorable nourishment, reproduction and housing places for lots of species, have high level of biological diversity after Tropical forests. These ecosystems have vital significance for endangered and endemic species.
Genetic DiversityTurkey is at the crossroads of two important Vavilovian gene centers: -The Mediterranean and the Near East- each important for the origin of field crops as well as horticultural plants. Some of the cultivated plant species originating in Turkey are Linum, Allium, Hordeum, Secale, Triticum, Avena, Cicer, Lens, Pisum, Vitis, Amygladus, Prunus, Beta, etc. There are 5 “micro-gene centre” in Turkey (Harlan 1951):
Thrace-Aegean Region: bread wheat, durum wheat, Poulardwheat, club wheat, einkorn wheat, lentil chickpea, melon, vetch, lupine, and clover.
Southern-Southeastern Anatolia: emmer wheat, einkorn wheat, Aegilops speltoides, squash, water melon, cucumber, bean, lentil, broad bean, grapevine, and forage plants.Samsun, Tokat, Amasya: numerous genera and species of fruits, broad bean, bean, lentil, and several forage legumes.
Kayseri and environs: almond, apple, pea, fruit species, grapevine, lentil, chickpea, alfalfa, and sainfoin.
Agri and environs: apple, apricot, cherry, sour cherry, forage legumes and watermelon.
Species DiversityTurkey has 75% of the total number of plant species found in the whole of Europe. One third of Turkish flora, which is more than twice as diverse as that of neighbouring countries are found only in Turkey. Cherries, apricots, almonds and figs all originated in Turkey. Turkish flora includes many wild relatives and genetic diversity of important domestic species (e.g. wheat, chickpea, lentil, apple, pear, apricot, chestnut, and pistachio). Turkey is also home to a number of ornamental flowers, the most notable being the tulip. Among continental countries, Turkey ranks 9th in terms of biodiversity richness with over 33% of its flora being endemic.

TURKEY: DID YOU KNOW?Turkey’s Little Known Facts...Istanbul is the only city in the world located on two continents, Europe and Asia. In its thousands of years of history, it has been the capital of three great empires - Roman, Byzantine and Ottoman.
The oldest known human settlement in the world is located in Catalhöyük, Turkey, dating back to 7000 B.C. The earliest landscape painting in history was found on the wall of a Catalhöyük house, illustrating the volcanic eruption of nearby Hasandag.
Two of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World stood in what is now Turkey - the Temple of Artemis at Ephesus and the Mausoleum of Halicarnassus in Bodrum.
The Turks introduced coffee to Europe.
The first coins ever minted were done so at Sardis, the capital of the ancient kingdom of Lycia, at the end of the seventh century B.C.
The word “turquoise” comes from “Turk” meaning Turkish, and was derived from the beautiful colour of the Mediterranean Sea on the southern Turkish coast.
The Turks first gave the Dutch their famous tulips that started the craze for the flower in England and the Netherlands. Bulbs brought to Vienna from Istanbul in the 1500s were so intensely popular that by 1634 in Holland it was called “tulipmania”. People invested money in tulips as they do in stocks today. This period of elegance and amusement in 17th century Turkey is referred to as “The Tulip Age.”
The most valuable silk carpet in the world is in the Mevlana Museum in Konya, Turkey. Marco Polo’s journeys in the thirteenth centuries took him here, and he remarked that the “best and handsomest of rugs” were to be found in Turkey.
Many important events surrounding the birth of Christianity occurred in Turkey. St John, St Paul and St Peter all lived and prayed in southern Anatolia. Tradition has it that St John bought Virgin Mary to Ephesus after the Crucifixion, where she spent her last days in a small stone house (Meryemana Evi) on what is now Bülbüldağı (Mount Koressos). It remains a popular pilgrimage site for Christians to this day.
Many archaeologists and biblical scholars believe Noah’s Ark landed on Ağrı Dağı (Mount Ararat) in eastern Turkey.
The seven churches mentioned in the Book of Revelation are all found in Turkey: Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia and Laodicea.
A cave known today as the Grotto of St Peter, or Church of St Peter, is believed to be where the apostle Peter preaches when he visited Antioch (Antakya, in southern Turkey). It is widely considered to be one of the earliest Christian houses of worship. In 1963, the papacy designated the site as a place of pilgrimage and recognised it as the world’s first cathedral. Every year on June 29, a special service held at the church, is attended by Christians from around the world.
Anatolia is the birthplace of many historic figures and legends such as the poet Homer, King Midas, Herodotus (the father of history) and St Paul the Apostle.
St Nicholas, or Santa Claus as he is know today, was born and lived in Demre (Myra) on Turkey’s Mediterranean coast. The village contains the famous Church of St Nicholas with the sarcophagus believed to be his tomb.
The first man ever to fly was Turkish. Using two wings, Hezarfen Ahmet Celebi flew from the Galata Tower over the Bosphorus to land in Usküdar in the 17th century

AVŞA(BALIKESİR)
Büyülübağ winery is established by Alp Toruner on Avşa Island, Marmara Sea, Turkey. The island with a history of viticulture and wine making since 1800’s, has a unique microclimate and sandy-loam soil. Our vision is to grace the island’s indigeneous grape variety ‘Adakarası’ with international awareness and to exploit the potential of the well-adapted cosmopolitan grape varieties in the Avşa Island’s terroir. At present Büyülübağ has 20 hectars of vineyards consisting of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah, Chardonnay and Adakarası. The best fitted root stocks are chosen resulting from the soil climate analysis conducted in France.
The winery construction has begun in October 2004 with this no pumps, no damage strategy. In our four level facility, there is a tasting room at the top level with a wonderful view. Production takes place between the rest three levels; the grape processing begins at the first level, with picking bins tipped on the first vibrating sorting table, then stem remover, the second vibrating sorting table and into a crusher/stemmer on this level. The tanks are at the lower level so crushed berries drained into tanks at this second level. Finally at the lowest level, there is the barrel cellar which is located under the ground level, water insulated, therefore it has a 70% annual average of humidity and 14º C of heat. The cellar consists of Burgundy and Bordeaux style 225 lt. French oak barrels. With our gravity flow winery, which is the first and only one of its kind in Turkey, Büyülübağ ensures that wine movement is slower, and therefore gentler and more controllable. The resulting wine is better because it has been moved in a more delicate manner that preserves its inherent qualities.
Today Büyülübağ Winery and Vineyards produce stylish, elegant and rich wines that already won medals at national and international wine competitions.

After many years in the wine business, presents its portfolio reflecting years of experience and passion devoted to perfection.
A testament to the true potential of our vineyards, the Kayra wine family is an important proof in our ongoing passion to improve winemaking in Turkey. Under the guidance of winemaker Daniel O’Donnell, from soil to grape variety, harvest to bottling, Kayra aims to bring the rich history and generous spirit of Anatolia to lovers of fine wine.
Kayra wines are produced from both indigenous Anatolian grapes as well as international grapes grown in the best vineyards that are true to our “on-site production” philosophy.
Our Elazığ Winery in Eastern Anatolia was established in 1942, and the Şarköy Winery in Thrace was established in 1996 with annual capacities of 4.7 and 4.5 million litres respectively. We have our own vineyards both in Elazig and Sarkoy. The wide variety of Kayra wines offer diversity under the brands Kayra Imperial, Kayra Versus, Kayra Buzbag Rezerv, Terra Anatolia and Buzbag.
Today, Kayra’s fine unique tastes from Anatolia are listed in many international fine dining restaurants and are receiving awards in international competitions.
In 2008, Kayra established the Kayra Wine Center as a wine training and information center. This project aims to create a platform for wine and horeca professionals, wine enthusiasts and academics in Turkey. Kayra Wine Center is also the Turkish Programme Provider for WSET (Wine and Spirits Education Trust).
Born in Anatolia, wine has always been among mankind’s most noble culinary achievements; so much so that it has been known as the “water of life,” and referred to in sayings like “the truth is in the wine.” Now, it is time for wine to regain its glory in the land where it belongs.

LA was born amidst great history and civilizations. We carry the impressions of our rich culture and history to our modern days. We combine the land, water, climate of Aegean region with our love and patience and present a unique world full of different tastes. We bring you (together with) what the metropols of civilizations shared for thousands of years as Consensus, Mon Rêve, Smyrna and Idol.
LA Project was founded with a dream to produce wines in world standards in Aegean Lands which has been the cradle of winery and viticulture for hundreds of years.
LA Vineyards, the largest vineyard in Turkey on a single lot has been established on land with 1,168 acres in Torbalı of Izmir. The characteristic of the soil and the climate has been examined by experts. In consequence of soil and climate analysis, the saplings supplied from Europe have been shipped to LA Vineyards by means of special air conditioned vehicles. Qualified wine grape species such as Tempranillo, Chenin Blanc, Viognier, Marselan, Trebbiano, Ugni Blanc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Chardonnay, and Misket, supposed to be accommodated to the soil and climate conditions of Aegean and some of them have never been planted in Turkey before, have been determined to be planted in LA Vineyards. The grapes has been started to be settled by using organic viticulture methods for the first time in Turkey in order to preserve the original fruit characteristics.
Registered by Ecocert, we have raised our grapes in our vineyard without using any hormones, synthetic chemical pesticides and fertilizers by using organic viticulture methods. Thus, we manage to preserve original fruit aromas generated by the grape terroirs in a natural way. Furthermore, we contribute to restructuring natural balance being spoiled by means of organic viticulture which is a human and nature friendly production method.

Selendi Wines was established in 2000 by Mr. Akin Ongor in Akhisar, Aegean Region of Turkey. After he retired from his position as the CEO of Garanti Bank, he purchased a former tobacco field to turn it into a vineyard and a boutique winery. The 1.5 hectares vineyard was planted with Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah. As the hobby turned into a business, Ongor family purchased more land in 2005. The second vineyard was established in, Sarnic village, 800m high from the sea level at mountain ranges. The 19 hectares land has four separate plots planted Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, Grenache, Mourvedre, Cinsault, Chardonnay, Viognier and Narince. The Sarnic vineyard has organic viticulture license. There is an ongoing project of building a bigger winery with the Hittite inspired architecture.
Selendi Wines follows chateau style production guidelines. At harvest time, the grapes are hand-picked before sunrise, and transported in 13kg small baskets to air-conditioned winery. Hand-selection of unripe and overripe grapes on conveyor belt takes place before and after grape bunches pass through the de-stemmer. Every varietal is fermented at stainless-steel tanks separately. They, then, rest in medium-toasted French oak barrels for 20 months. The wines are bottled at the premises.
Each vintage of Selendi red blend has a different contemporary painting by a Turkish artist on its label.
Products: Selendi 2009 (red blend) and Gulpembe 2011 (organic rose wine).
Fall 2012: Selendi 2010 and Merlot 2010 (organic) will be released.
Future releases (all organic): Syrah (single varietal); Cabernet Sauvignon (single varietal); Narince (white single varietal); and a blend of Chardonnay and Viognier.
A percentage of the profits are donated to the girl’s industrial vocational high school built by Mr. Akin Ongor in name of his wife, Zeynep Gulin Ongor.

In 1942, after having discovered vineyards and winemaking in France,
Mr. Isa Güner, a first-generation imigrant from Bulgaria, founded his own winery in Izmir - Turkey. Understanding that there was outstanding natural potentiality in Turkey for wine production, Nowadays, the property composed by 160 hectares of vineyard and a first class restaurant (Isabey), is managed by the third generation of the Güner family.
Sevilen is producing grapes on two sites:
• Aegean area, around Izmir, a warm Mediterranean climate• Anatolia plateau, a cool Mediterranean climate
In Izmir (150 meters of elevation) climate conditions are closed to those of Bari or Athens. In the Anatolia plateau (900 meters of elevation), climate conditions are similar to Rhone valley (Hermitage, Chateauneuf du Pape) but drier during summer. On both sites soils are unique with a complex distribution, alternation of chalk and shale (heavy clay) and occurrence of limestone. This diversity of soil and climate allows the production of very qualitative white and red wine always presenting an unique expression.

Vinkara’s tale dates back to the 1960s when the group purchased land in the Kalecik region in Ankara. Venture into viniculture began in 2003 with the cultivation of vineyards in Kalecik. Today, Vinkara has vineyards and production facilities on 135 acres with a capacity of produce 1,040,000 liters of wine.
In 2008, Italian wine producer and oenologist Signor Marco Monchiero joined our group.
The microclimate created as result of the mountains surrounding the Kalecik terrain, makes it one of the most important centers for viniculture in the world. This climate characteristic is the same as that of the regions around the world where Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Pinot Noir grapes are cultivated. The air hits the mountains as it rises, creating hot weather in the valley and rain in the plains. Our vineyards are approximately 650 meters above sea level and in close proximity to Kızılırmak. Because there is a big difference between day and night temperatures, the grapes cultivated in Kalecik have a distinctive taste and aroma.
The most prominent grape cultivated carries the name of the region: Kalecik Karası.
The aromas of Kalecik Karası wines are not strong with just the right level of tannins with a soft finish.
60% of Vinkara’s vineyards are allocated to Kalecik Karası grapes as the priority, but other Anatolia grapes along with world class grapes are cultivated.
Vinkara as a young, dynamic wine company for the first time in Turkey produced a sparkling wine by traditional method from Kalecik Karası (Blanc de noir) named Yaşasın. The objective of the company is to present this special grape “Kalecik Karası” to international wine lovers.
In Vinkara’s short history, Vinkara products have won Grand Gold medal at the 2011 Mundus Vini (Germany), Gold Medals at the 2011 and 2012 Selections Mondiales des Vins (Canada) competitons.
