Cappadocia

Overview

  • Private tour: only you and your own group, with your own guide and vehicle
  • A tasting of 3 to 4 Cappadocian wines in a cave cellar
  • A bottle of your choice from the tasting, one for every two guests, to drink at sunset
  • Sunset at the Red Valley viewpoint, with the wine and the view
  • Hotel pick-up and drop-off in Cappadocia
  • About 4 hours, starting three hours before sunset

Cappadocia has been making wine for around four thousand years, since the Hittites, and the grapes here are ones you will not have drunk anywhere else: Emir, a white grown only on this plateau, and Kalecik Karasi and Okuzgozu among the reds. The volcanic soil and the cold nights do something particular to them. You start at a local winery, in a cave cellar where the barrels are kept at the temperature the rock holds all year, and taste three or four of them with someone who can explain what you are drinking. Then you choose the one you liked, take the bottle with you, and drive to the Red Valley, where the rock turns red as the sun drops.

Itinerary

We collect you from your hotel about three hours before sunset and drive you to the winery. The time moves through the year with the sunset, so we confirm it with you the day before.
Hotel pick up
At the winery you are shown how the wine is made here, from the harvest on the volcanic slopes to the cave cellar where the barrels sit at the temperature the rock holds all year round. Cappadocia has been producing wine for around four thousand years, and the grapes are local ones: Emir, a white grown only on this plateau, and reds like Kalecik Karasi and Okuzgozu.
Briefing for Wine-Making
ou taste three or four of the winery's wines in the cave, with someone explaining what each one is and what the volcanic soil does to it. Children taste grape juice or a soft drink alongside.
Wine Tasting
You choose the bottle you liked best from the tasting and take it with you, then drive to the Red Valley viewpoint. The cliffs here are banded pink and red from the volcanic layers, and they deepen in colour as the sun goes down. Glasses are provided.
Red Valley Sunset Point
After the sunset we drive you back to your hotel.
