A Turkish Sauvignon Blanc at the Club

This is a wine I saw at the Sports Shop at the Club the other day - a Sauvignon Blanc from Kavaklidere, the oldest and best known winery in Turkey. Now the Club does sometimes get adventurous when sourcing wines for its members, either as wine of the month in the bar and coffee shop, or for sale in the shop. I had blogged about a Mexican Merlot , a couple of Cuban wines (from a Cuba Italian joint venture) and a Thai wine amongst other wines with a difference I met here in KCC.

Apart from wines made from international varieties, Kavaklidere also produces wines from indigenous varieties such as Kalecik Karasi, Bogazkere and Okuzgozu, sometime blending them with better known varieties.
