"Home to an architecturally gorgeous wine cellar, Lucien Arkas is Turkey’s largest single-parcel organic vineyard. Taste a few wines, wander the vineyard, and end with a meal at La Mahzen Restaurant, where you can pair dishes with the brand’s Consensus Chardonnay or Mon Reve Marselan." - Tuba Şatana
"The Lucien Arkas vineyards are well worth a visit. Take some time to stroll among the vines. It's the perfect way to spend a romantic day with your loved one. The spacious and inviting restaurant overlooks the estate and is a real ambassador for the winery (bottles are for sale at the entrance). The chef's Mediterranean dishes are a feast for the senses, with their simple presentation and bold flavours that perfectly complement the quality wines produced here. Courgette flowers generously stuffed with cheese and herbs, creamy mushroom risotto… Here, the focus is on honest flavours, both in the glass and on the plate." - Michelin Inspector
"Sleep in for a bit; your next drive is only an hour, and all you’ll need to do is sit on an expansive patio at Lucien Arkas winery overlooking the largest contiguous—and organic—vineyard in Turkey. Both indigenous and international grapes make up the vast offerings, all of which are overseen by Italian winemaker Lorenzo Severino. While the place has the posh, polished feel of an established wine country estate (yes, they do weddings)."
