Karma Cabernet Sauvignon
Cabernet Sauvignon Okuzgozu, a world famous noble varietal, is known as “the king of red grapes”. This grape variety, cultivated in Doluca’s own vineyards near Murefte (northwest of Turkey), expresses its tannic, full-bodied and fruity characteristics in KARMA Cabernet Sauvignon-Okuzgozu. Okuzgozu (literally “ox’s eye”), named after the remarkable size of its grapes and harvested from select villages of Elazig (Eastern Anatolia), contributes to KARMA Cabernet Sauvignon-Okuzgozu its unique aroma and crisp, fruity character.
These two grapes of strong character complement one another and lend bouquets that strengthen by aging, and thus yield a balanced combination. KARMA Cabernet Sauvignon-Okuzgozu is aged for 12 months in 225 lt. French oak barrels. With its full body, long finish and powerful, tannic structure it invokes the aromas of red fruits, vanilla, cinnamon and caramel. Recommended with 7-8 years following the vintage date under ideal storage conditions.
