Producer website

All CHAMLIJA vineyards are located in Kirklareli Province, Thrace, Turkey . The Bulgarian name of Kirklareli was Lozengrad, which means "The city of Vines". CHAMLIJA currently has 90 hectares under vine . Their plantings are some of the highest density in the Balkans and Turkey, ranging from 5,000 to 6,666 vines per hectare , with some vineyards even at 10 ,000!
The aim of high-density planting is to enhance quality and encourage deep root systems to express the full potential of the terroir. The Strandja Massif has a dominant effect on their vineyard soils and climates.
