Another Dark Horse wine from Turkey: Doluca Kav Narice 2005



The Kav is a white blend made of some autochthonous varietals from Eastern Anatolia. It showed a style of white wine I have never experienced before. The main flavours remind me of a well aged, slightly roasted pear as well as a bit of older red apples. There were some scents (and flavours) of flowers, too. The colour appeared to be rather dark yellow. Surely something for a curious wine drinker. In this case your curiosity might be rewarded. For me another very fine surprise from Turkey and a bargain, too (approx. 9 Euro). The only problem might be its availability outside Turkey.
