In Pursuit of Flavor: May 2011

http://inpursuitofflavor.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html

In Pursuit of Flavor. Thoughts of a wine lover from Turkey. Monday, May 30, 2011. If you'd like to drink an aromatic wine that smells like a sweet, flowery perfume, you may try Doluca Moskado, which is a medium dry wine made of Muscat grapes. As soon as you pour the wine into the glass, it smells so aromatic that you want to taste it immediately. Sent by Elif Ersin Sarıgül. Friday, May 20, 2011. Kayra, Terra Italia Barbera D'asti 2006. Barbera is the second most widely produced grape in Italy after Sangi...

In Pursuit of Flavor. Thoughts of a wine lover from Turkey. Thursday, October 27, 2011. Amadeus Cabernet Sauvignon 2010. This is the first time that I tasted a wint of Amadeus thanks to a good friend, who recently went to Bozcaada for vacation, admired the island, and returned with this wine as a gift to me. This is Amadeus Cabernet Sauvignon 2010. Considering that we are in October 2011, I wondered if it was too early to drink this wine. Curiosity won the battle and I opened the bottle. Bu yolu da, bu y...

In Pursuit of Flavor: June 2011

In Pursuit of Flavor. Thoughts of a wine lover from Turkey. Wednesday, June 29, 2011. Bottle ring / neckless. In the last photo, you see a stopper and pourer. You can pull the thin metal ring to take out the stopper part and use it only as pourer. Unfortunately, I can't do it! Someone has done it once, so I know that it is possible, but I guess I am not enough powerfull to do it. So, I use it only as a stopper for now :). Sent by Elif Ersin Sarıgül. Sunday, June 26, 2011.

In Pursuit of Flavor: Akberg Gamay (2004)

http://inpursuitofflavor.blogspot.com/2011/10/akberg-gamay-2004.html

In Pursuit of Flavor. Thoughts of a wine lover from Turkey. Saturday, October 1, 2011. I had tasted Akberg wines when I visited Artemis Winery in Sirince. I also had tasted their Gamay and I liked it, but I didn't like this wine. It tastes too sweet for me. I didn't feel anything but sweetness. and I couldn't finish my glas. Please don't think that something was wrong with the wine. I believe it is only me. It was just not one of my favourites. Sent by Elif Ersin Sarıgül. My other blog in Turkish. Vinogr...

In Pursuit of Flavor: September 2011

http://inpursuitofflavor.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html

In Pursuit of Flavor. Thoughts of a wine lover from Turkey. Monday, September 26, 2011. Doluca Verano Blush (2010). Doluca Verano Blush (2010). Verano Blush is a rose colored, refreshing, and red fruity wine made of Grenache grapes grown in Doluca's vineyars in Saroz (Turkey). It is delicious and very easy to drink. Don't limit yourself with aperatives as I did! Drink it with whatever you like, as red wines are still not enough refreshing in these still warm days of September. Sent by Elif Ersin Sarıgül.

In Pursuit of Flavor: July 2011

In Pursuit of Flavor. Thoughts of a wine lover from Turkey. Monday, July 25, 2011. Unfortunately, I can't give much information about this wine since I didn't take any notes. I remember only that it was a very nice, round, and delicious wine from Bordeaux, France made of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. I would remember more if I was the one who choose it from the menu.

In Pursuit of Flavor. Thoughts of a wine lover from Turkey. Saturday, October 22, 2011. M Chapoutier Petite Ruche Crozes Hermitage (2009). We had a lovely dinner in Lyon in a restaurant called Les Lyonnais. The watier (I believe he was the chief and the manager at the same time) was a friendly man with good sense of homour.
