This time I was in Bodrum for 5 days. It was not enough to do everything I wanted but still it was okay to have good times. One of the best things about my holidays in Bodrum is to taste new wines towards to my wonderful hometown view. When I first met Gali wines, I tasted 2009 harvest. The responsible of Gali wines Nilgün Kavur recommended their 2010 harvest and gave me a bottle for present.
First of all, I have to say that Gali suprised me when i tasted 2010 harvest. Especially after waiting one hour in Carafe, it completely got in a great acidity and I can say that this well bodied wine represents merlot's character very well! 2009 harvest Gali had a stronger taste and Merlot was dominant.It is clear that 2010 harvest offers more balanced combination between Merlot and Cabernet Franc.
