When I went through the WSET L2 class, at no point was Turkish wine brought into the conversation.
Quite some time ago, I came across a person on Twitter that I decided to follow because she was always talking about Turkish wine. Through each post, her enthusiasm and passion for the wine showed through and anyone who knows me knows I love to share someone’s passion for wine.
Andrea Lemieux, aka The Quirky Cork, began enjoying wine while she lived in Washington DC, but it wasn’t until she moved to Turkey for a job that she fell in love with it. Join us as she tells me about the long history of wine making in Turkey, teaches me how to pronounce those difficult to pronounce Turkish wine grapes, and why we can’t find these wines in the United States. She also will provide tips of the best places to visit on your next trip to Turkey.

What an excellent interview! I'm a bit biased as Andrea is my daughter, but we don't sit down and talk about wine in this fashion. Her knowledge is very impressive, both of wine and Turkey. I will be passing this on to friends and family. I'm not a wine drinker but when I was there this past fall, Andrea actually got me to drink some different ones. I found out that I prefer sweet with bubbles! I also have seen her in action at a wine tasting event. It was lovely and friendly and those there were very impressed and learned new things about wine. I hope you two can meet up. If you ever go to Turkey, Andrea is the quintessential hostess
