Öküzgözü 2008

Our Öküzgözü 2008 is available since a few days. This wine was made from a single grape variety: Öküzgözü, and all the grapes come from Elazig region.
 

Öküzgözü means “Bull’s eye” in English . This grape with large berries leads to deep color wines with an intense nose.
The nose is first expressed by typical notes of cherry, black cherry, prune, and then most original flavors of dried apricot and thyme.
The mouth is very round; it combines black currant and cherry jam aromas with more spicy notes of black pepper.
This very fruity red wine will get very well with white meats in sauce or not too spicy red meats.
For red wines, the ideal serving temperature is generally 18-20 ° C. The Öküzgözü 2008 can also be served at a slightly cooler temperature, 16 °C, to highlight the fruit of the grape variety and reduce the perception of spicy notes.
Have a nice tasting!
