Product Notes

Kayra versus Öküzgözü is a classic battle of two popular grape varieties native to Turkey. Kayra, also known as Carignan, is a medium-bodied red grape that is known for its dark fruit flavors and soft tannins. Öküzgözü, on the other hand, is a lighter-bodied grape that is characterized by its bright acidity and red fruit flavors.

The two grapes are often compared, with some saying that Kayra has a more complex flavor profile while others argue that Öküzgözü is more versatile. Ultimately, which grape is preferred will depend on personal taste and food pairing.

However, both of these Turkish grapes are highly regarded and are an important part of the country's wine culture.

About the Winery

Kayra

Kayra is a renowned Turkish wine producer and brand whose history dates back to the 1944s. The story of the winery remains closely associated with the peninsula of Anatolia. Since time immemorial, the region has witnessed the rise and fall of numerous cultures. Nonetheless, wine has remained a consistent part of the place. It can get owed to the God of Wine, Dionysus, worshipped since ancient times.
