Wines & Verses | "Love and Longing"
Step into a historic winehouse in Beyoglu for the very first Wines & Verses session — a fortnightly gathering where poetry and wine intertwine.
Our opening theme, “Love and Longing,” brings together seven voices, each sharing poems that move them, followed by open reflections from the circle. With masterfully paired wines alongside each piece, the evening promises resonance, warmth, and discovery.
