A blend of a local wine, Öküzgözü (80%), often compared to Pinot Noir, and Malbec (20%).This wine has a complex variation of flavours. Hints of earth associated to red fruit, cherry and wild strawberry. Tannins are round. Liquorice and bitter chocolate appear in the mouth. A very interesting wine with rustic flavours.
