Turkish Wines and Wine Tasting in Cappadocia
Wines have played an important role in Turkey since times immemorial and Cappadocia was one of the first wine- producing areas. It was in Asia Minor around 2 000 BC during the Hittite era that wine-producing really began seriously. The Hittites created wines classifications and began exporting wine to countries of the Assyrian and Sumerian empires. They named the wine-producing area of Anatolia: Wiyanawanda - which meant "the wine country". With over 1,500,000 acres (6,100km²) planted under vine, Turkey is the world's fourth-leading producer of grapes. Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, Turkey’s first president, established the country’s first commercial winery in 1925. Most wines produced are white (beyaz), the rest are rosés (pembe) and red (kırmızı).
Established in 1943 by Hasan Turasan, schoolteacher at the primary school in Ürgüp, the Turasan Wine Company is now managed by Hasan Turasan of the third generation. Turasan was a small vintner up until the 1990s, when the boom of the tourist industry hit Cappadocia and Turasan's production continued to grow until it reached 1 1 million liters in 2003. Turasan's factory can be found in Ürgüp and the company owns vineyards throughout the region.
