One problem with commercial wine producing in Turkey is how terribly expensive alcohol is here. A friend of ours knows the man who produces Suvla brand wine and we hear about how difficult it is to be commercially successful at it. You almost have to approach it as a hobby. For selfish reasons, I hope he does, but I wouldn't blame him if he didn't.
