The Leela Palace New Delhi Introduces Turya — India’s First Hotel-Crafted Private Wine Label

With this launch, the well-known becomes the first in the country to introduce its own premium wine label , reaffirming its dedication to curating homegrown luxury experiences for global travellers.

A Milestone for Indian Wine Craftsmanship

Turya draws inspiration from the Sanskrit word meaning transcendence, symbolising the harmony between nature’s purity and human artistry. Produced in Nashik’s distinguished Dindori terroir and aged in French and American oak barrels, the wines reflect The Leela’s philosophy of celebrating Indian creativity and craftsmanship.

The Collection — Three Distinct Expressions

The debut portfolio features three curated labels, each offering its own narrative of Indian soil, climate, and patience:

• Chardonnay–Viognier Blend

  Aged vintage with dark berry, fig, and earthy characteristics that evoke tradition and depth.

• Turya Private Barrique Reserva Shiraz
