{"product_id":"kayra-versus-alpagut-okuzgozu-2020","title":"Kayra Versus Alpagut Öküzgözü 2020","description":"\u003cp\u003eA complex nose of rhubarb, cassis and blackberry preserve are combined with subtle overtones of allspice and hazelnut and an intriguing note of pine forest. A concentrated and powerful wine full of high toned red fruits and a long finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA philosophy of minimum intervention was carried out in the winery, so that the vineyard’s terroir expresses its true potential. The grapes were carefully hand sorted and underwent 48 hours cold maceration. Fermentation took place at controlled temperatures of 26 to 28°C, followed by 18 months ageing in oak. 20% was new oak (13% French, 7% American) and the remaining 80% was matured in neutral oak. The focus was to achieve a wine with balance and liveliness.\u003c\/p\u003e\nThe wines from the Kayra Versus vineyard are a reflection of the viticulture and wine\ncrafting in modern day Turkey. Grown in Alpagut, in Eastern Anatolia, the indigenous\nÖküzgözü vines are planted on south facing slopes with pebble and clay soils. The\ncontinental climate offers wide diurnal temperature swings which prolong the ripening\nperiod; the warm days encourage good concentration of fruit flavour in the grapes, while\nthe cool nights impart a balancing natural acidity. These vines are now reaching a\nmaturity level which is demonstrating what they have to offer. The grapes are hand-picked\nat optimum maturity levels.","brand":"Givino","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":61580932153674,"sku":"8697530214520","price":22.37,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0842\/4747\/8602\/files\/kayra.png?v=1775904015","url":"https:\/\/givino.co.uk\/products\/kayra-versus-alpagut-okuzgozu-2020","provider":"Givino","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
