Co-exhibitor of Istanbul Exporters' Associations
Büyülübağ winery is established by Alp Törüner on Avşa Island, Marmara Sea, Türkiye. The island with a history of viticulture and wine making since 1800’s, has a unique microclimate and sandy-loam soil. Our vision is to grace the island’s indigeneous, Geographical Indication (GI) grape variety ‘Ada Karası’ with international awareness and to exploit the potential of the well-adapted cosmopolitan grape varieties in the Avşa Island’s terroir. At present Büyülübağ has 20 hectares of vineyards consisting of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah, Chardonnay and Ada Karası. The best fitted root stocks are chosen resulting from the soil climate analysis conducted in France. Hand harvested grapes are sorted on two separate vibrating tables. Most of the wines are wild fermented with skin yeast. With our gravity flow winery, which is the first and only one of its kind in Türkiye, Büyülübağ ensures that wine movement is slower, and therefore gentler and more controllable. The resulting wine is better because it has been moved in a more delicate manner that preserves its inherent qualities. The underground barrel cellar has a natural 70% annual average of humidity and 14°C of heat. The cellar consists of Burgundy and Bordeaux style 225 lt. French oak barrels. Today Büyülübağ Winery and Vineyards produce stylish, elegant and rich wines that already won medals at national and international wine competitions.
