Depart your centrally located Istanbul hotel at 8:00 a.m. in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle and travel to Thrace, a region whose wine heritage dates back to the 2nd century AD. After a scenic 2.5-hour drive, arrive at Chateau Nuzun near the village of Çeşmeli for a guided tasting of signature wines such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Zinfandel and Pinot Noir, while learning about their organic production. Around midday continue to Lüleburgaz for lunch (at your own expense), then visit Arcadia Vineyards, one of Turkey’s most prestigious wineries, to tour the estate, discover their winemaking techniques and sample a selection of their award-winning wines. With two memorable tastings complete, depart Arcadia around 4:00 p.m. and arrive back at your Istanbul hotel at approximately 6:00 p.m.
