The Sevilen Majestik Syrah and Kalecik Karasi have a deep red color, pure, intense, fresh, and ripe. Majestic red also has a remarkably aromatic fullness on the nose. On the palate, you will discover minerality, fruit, spices, finesse, and harmonious balance, all of which are awakened by the masterful mixture of Kalecik Karasi and Syrah.
In 1942, after having discovered vineyards and winemaking in France, Mr. Isa Guner, a first-generation immigrant from Bulgaria, founded his own winery in Izmir, Turkey. Understanding that there was outstandingnatural potential in Turkey for wine production, he purchased 4 hectares and started planting vineyards. In 1958, Mr. Guner’s sons, Mr. Gokhan Guner and Mr. Coskun Guner joined the business developing the property to 50 hectares.
Nowadays the property, composed of 160 hectares of vineyard and a first class restaurant (Isabey), is managed by the third generation of the Guner family. They are assisted by experienced French consultant Mr. Florent Dumeau from the Bordeaux region. Sevilen Group has been working on the terroir approach (Soil, local climate and vineyard architecture, rootstock, varietal, vine spacing, leaf area per hectare, crop per vine) with already outstanding results.
