Vinkara’s venture into viniculture began in 2003-2004 with the cultivation of their vineyards on 89 acres of land. At the end of 8 years, we left behind a very important period in viniculture: our vineyards were totally acclimated with the soil and we were producing top quality products

The Çamlica family had already been farming in European Turkey for generations, so naturally Mustafa Çamlica wanted to be a part of the Turkish wine renaissance. He founded Chamlija Winery in 2000 in the small Thracian town of Büyükkarıştıran, and planted his vineyards throughout the decomposed granite soils of the Strandja Massif, near where Turkey meets Bulgaria
