About us
10 years ago, father and daughter Ozcan and Zeynep Arca established Arcadia Vineyards to make n unique wines that reflect the mountainous terroir of Northern Thrace.
Kırklareli area has been a very famous wine region from antiquity untill the world war one. However, with political and economical turmoil in the area at the beginning of 20th century wine production in the region halted for a century.
Arcadia Vineyards established in the regionat the beginning of 21st century and pioneered the ressurection of this amasing terroir. Happily today more and more grovers are initiating new estates and Kırklareli is restoring its glorious name as a wine region.
From planting the vines to vinifying the grapes, we insist on careful production methods and minimum intervention, so that our wines can express the unique terroir of our vineyards. Arcadia wines are all made from estate-grown fruit. In 35 hectares of vineyard we grow nine different types of grape: Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Sauvignon Blanc, Sauvignon Gris, Sangiovese, Pinot Gris, Öküzgözü and Narince.
Arcadia Vineyards is also designed as a gastronomic oasis in nature. Extended on a total of 200 hectares in the countryside of Kırklareli, it is an example of agricultural protection with sustainably cultivated vineyards, Chateau type winery, orchards, vegetable gardens, oak groves and farms of different sizes.
In the middle of the Arcadia Vineyards estate, Bakucha Vineyard Hotel & SPA offers 18 junior suites, a chef’s restaurant, a snack bar with scenic view of the Istranca Mountains and the Vineyards, a SPA with Classical Turkish Hammam.
You can spend a lovely day in nature, take a walk in the vineyards and oak groves, take a guided winery tour and tasting, join the season’s harvest, may it be grapes, cherries, wild oregano, rosehips, mushrooms or just relax enjoy the view and a delicious food.
Alternatively, you can take daytrips to discover many beautiful sights in the region, including the Dupnisa Cave, Longoz forest of Istranca Montains or the world-famous heritage sites of Edirne City. Private organizations and group reservations are also welcomed.
