I love wine tasting, and when I found the opportunity to do it in Bodrum I hopped on it! A small family winery which operates from the basement. I took the Dolmus bus there from city center very easy and only 3lira or 40 cents. I emailed the host to see if I was the only one who booked and I was which I was OK with it. When I arrived she had invited her friends and we had such a great time, meetings locals, having good wine and conversation. She said I was the first guest since March. We had such a delicious mezze cooked by her mom. A true local experience to end my trip in Turkey! And her friends were so kind enough to drop me off in the city center as well. And best believe I brought a bottle of wine home! The price is a bit steep compared to the Turkish Lira but in US Dollars was worth it!

Karnas Vineyards is a beautiful vineyard located 25 minutes drive from Bodrum and is home to the first vineyard to plant the Zinfandel variety in Turkey. It is a boutique winery where the award winning wines are produced by a family in its own single vineyard using traditional techniques. Guests are welcome to visit the farm, olive orchards,vineyards and attend wine tasting and food&wine events.

This gorgeous little charming vineyard must be one of Bodrums best kept secrets! My daughter had arranged & booked this as a special birthday surprise for me during our week long holiday in Bodrum Turkey. We were picked up promptly from our hotel, Our driver was very polite and knowledgeable, giving us the history of the villages we past through. Upon arrival we were met personally by the wonderful chef and host who explained and showed us the machinery/process of the wine and about how the owner in her retirement came to making the delectable wines. We were given our first glass of tasty rose wine and were shown to our seats in the dining room where the open fire was lit and the views/sunset from the terrace were amazing. The food was absolutely fantastic paired with awesome wines, especially loved the goats cheese and the homemade Lemoncello! Here i will admit to not being a great lover of red wine in the past however the Karnas Red Zindafel Wine completely converted me. Overall this is a truly enchanting memorable experience and i highly recommend everyone to visit Karnas Vineyard at least once!

The Gemici family makes traditional Turkish wines with both native and noble varieties which you can find in their lovely shop alongside jams, soaps, and other homemade items. The wines are fresh and easy, great for pairing with the Aegean foods! I especially like the Sultaniye and the Aya Katrina. .

If you are in Urla this is a place one must visit for wine tasting with cheese platter and great customer service. They offer both indoor and outdoor seating overlooking the vineyard. Great place also for kids to play and explore the vineyard.

In the turn of the century, Urla Sarapcilik started a journey to reestablish the lost reputation of Klazomenai, assemgling its old custom with a modern approach in their own vineyards. Urla Sarapcilik, focusing on viticulture and wine production on a regional scale, aim to revive the ancient wine culture of the area and bring its glorious heritage to future. Spread over 350 acres, our own vineyards are overseen by organic and good agricultural practices since their early plantations. 150 to 200 thousand liters of quality wine are produced from endemic and international varieties improved though ongoing clone selection practice. Standing on as passionate as ever, Urla Sarapcilik is determined to open new horizons for its homeland that is earning better recognition as a tourist destination day by day.

It is a special place. The vineyard is the biggest in the region. Modern and good quality wine production facility. It was designed in the form of wine drop. Enjoy wine tasting. My favorite is Urla Nero D’avola.

First let me say that we are from San Francisco and we are a short drive to Napa and Sonoma. So, our expectations were not too high when we stopped at MMG. However, the wine that Meltem Atalay is producing is very nice indeed. We had their wine tasting and appetizers of cheese and fruit and from that we came away with thirty bottles of wine including the dark-blush and three vintages of the Cabernet. The blush is very drinkable now. The Cabs, of which we bought 2011, 2014 and 2017 are all excellent. We opened the 2011 when we got home, decanted it, and enjoyed it a lot as the tannins have softened. Being unfiltered, which I particularly like, they have a complexity far beyond their price. We have a condo in Kuşadası and now have a nice closet of wine to use while we are here for three months. The location of the winery is great and it has a beautiful view of the hills and the water beyond. The staff including Meltem as the winemaker and her brother Mert who runs the operation with her, are great people. Meltem’s husband (sorry, I have forgotten his name) also is there assisting and he too is very wine knowledgeable and we enjoyed talking with him. We highly recommend you stop by MMG, for the wine, the view and to sit and talk with such gracious people. Keep up the great work! Gary
