Narince – Tokat

Narince is the native white grape of the Yeşilırmak valley in Tokat. Part of this wine is aged in oak barrels, adding a gentle roundness to Narince's citrus and floral aromas.

Tasting notes

Grapefruit, quince, acacia blossom and a touch of honey; medium body, balanced acidity and a creamy texture.

Two sides of one vine

Narince's thin, soft leaves are the famous Tokat vine leaves. We make the vine-leaf rolls on our menu with them, and our sommelier explains this pairing to guests who want to get to know the fruit and leaf of the same vine.

Pairing

Goes well with Cappadocian clay-pot mushrooms, grilled halloumi and baked sea bass.

We serve Narince slightly cool, at 10 – 12 °C; served too cold its aromas close up. The wine on our list comes from a small family producer with hillside vineyards around Erbaa.

Note: this wine is served only on the premises to guests aged 18 and over; our website shows no prices, promotions or sales.
