Kavaklıdere is the one of the oldest and largest private-sector wineries in Turkey.[1] Founded in 1929 by the And family in Ankara, the company is named after the city's Kavaklıdere neighborhood, where its first vineyards were established.
As of 2025, Kavaklıdere manages over 650 hectares of vineyards across seven distinct sub-regions in Anatolia and exports approximately 20% of its production to international markets.[2] The company is notable for pioneering the production of premium wines from indigenous Anatolian grape varieties such as Kalecik Karası and Narince, and for becoming the first Turkish winery to acquire vineyard estates in France under its subsidiary, **Maison Kavaklidere**.[3]
