Pano Wine Bar was established in 1898 during the Ottoman Empire by Panayot Papadopoulos, a Greek minority member who began selling wine from Bozcaada. Now Istanbul's oldest wine house, the classic-elegant interior has been lovingly restored, featuring an impressive selection of Turkish and international wines. The atmosphere transports guests to another era while celebrating Turkey's wine heritage.
