Buradan Winery

About Buradan Winery

Buradan is a small family vineyard and winery at Kızkapanı in the Ovacık area, about six kilometres south of Çeşme town; OpenStreetMap tags this building as a wine-press house used for wine tasting. Founder Turgay Gümüş planted the vines in 2010 and the first commercial vintage followed in 2016. The name means "from here", and the idea is a wine made in Çeşme for Çeşme: grapes are grown, pressed and bottled on the estate rather than bought in, the vineyard is certified organic, and the wines are aged in stainless steel to keep them fresh. The flagship is Şirin, a Grenache rosé named after the founder's wife, joined by Fidan, a young Tempranillo red named after his mother; a Sultaniye and Chardonnay white called Alara has also been entered in the International Wine Challenge. Visitors can taste in a small stand-alone room at the vineyard entrance, and the winery runs a Women in Wine project, with most of its staff female and an annual scholarship for women in winemaking. The estate's Instagram describes it as a vineyard, food and lifestyle destination.
