Lucien Arkas Vineyard is the first producer to receive a ‘TSE COVID-19 Safe Production Certificate’ in this field in Turkey. The Vineyard produces Chateau, and grapes are processed immediately after the harvest. Grapes are harvested in the night chill under the moonlight.
Situated on the Ancient Metropolis lands, Lucien Arkas Vineyard blends the Aegean soil, water and climate with the care, affection and patience, creating a distinctive flavor. It is now the harvest time in Lucien Arkas Vineyard. Grape harvest is carried out with the highest safety measures fully compliant with hygiene rules and the COVID-19 Guide issued by the Turkish Ministry of Health.
