Kutman Karadut Meyve Şarabı

Kutman Karadut Meyve Şarabı is a fruit wine made from black mulberry, part of the fruit series of the Kutman family, who have made wine in the town of Mürefte in Thrace since 1896. Black mulberry, known for its dark colour and pronounced fruit character, is the key ingredient in this wine.

Who is Kutman?

The Kutman family's winemaking story begins in 1896, when Ali Paşazade Ahmet Efendi bought a winery in the town of Mürefte in Thrace. After the population exchange, the family expanded production by taking over neighbouring wineries. Today there is also a Kutman Wine Museum in Mürefte, displaying the family's earliest winemaking equipment and historical documents. Alongside its Prestige, Reserve and Classic series, Kutman's range also includes a fruit series made from sour cherry, melon, blackberry, black mulberry, strawberry and pomegranate.

What is fruit wine?

Fruit wine is the general term for wines made by fermenting the juice of fruits other than grapes. Black mulberry, loved in Turkey in the form of molasses, syrup and jam, is prized for its dark purple colour and intense fruit flavour; it lends the same dark colour and fruity character to this wine. We recommend checking the bottle label for technical details such as alcohol content and sweetness level.

How should it be served, and what food does it pair with?

Fruit wines are generally served chilled. Black mulberry wine can be served alongside fruit tarts and chocolate desserts, or in small glasses after a meal; it also suits a cheese board.
