Super tasty cross between CENTRAL coast CA Pinot and southern Rhône Grenache blend. Just the right amount of fresh black cherry and gentle Mediterranean herbs - lovely, low tannin profile with balanced acidity that defies the 14.5 ALC. FABULOUS at Otto Turkish Döner :) — 2 years ago
Delicious and different. Powerful Öküzgözü with a heavy red-grape flavor and strong earthy nose. The best Öküzgözü I have had. Should be consumed with steak or lamb.
100% Öküzgözü in 2014. — 2 years ago

Red blend of Öküzgözü, Cab Sauv and Boğazkere before aging in French barrels for 10 months. Kocabağ only does barrel aging in some of its premium lines, but mostly used, not new.
This blend is really a (Turkish) delight. Fruit forward with medium acids, low tannins, and a nice long finish at the end. Wonderful aromas of red cherries, raspberry, red currant,
black currant, and chocolate. Like good milk chocolate, not dark. Some earthy notes and herbaceous accents too. — a year ago
Strong cherry aromas and flavors, very mild acid from the tart cherry and some mild but present tannins. Very food friendly. A blend of 4 grapes (Öküzgözü, Bogazkere, Alicante, Carignan) made in Turkey. — 2 years ago

An interesting nose with red cherries and a hint of mint, both come through on the palate along with some good acidity and fine-grained tannins that linger. Definitely a new grape for all of us!
