The Leela Palace New Delhi launched private label wine Turya

The Leela Palace New Delhi has launched Turya, touted to be a first-of-its-kind private-label wine created exclusively for the hotel in collaboration with Grover Zampa Vineyards. Celebrated for its stewardship of Indian art, culture and craftsmanship, The Leela Palace introduces Turya as an expression of its commitment to honouring India’s winemaking potential and elevating homegrown luxury.

Rooted in the Sanskrit concept of transcendence, Turya embodies purity, intention and the harmony between human artistry and nature. The hotel describes the wine not merely as a product, but as an extension of the hyper-personalised guest experiences it curates, reflecting a deep connection to the land, its people and India’s evolving terroir. With this launch, The Leela Palace New Delhi claims to become the first hotel in India to introduce its own private wine label, marking a significant milestone in the country’s hospitality landscape.

Crafted from grapes grown on the slopes of Nashik and aged in French and American oak barrels, Turya debuts with a trio of wines. The Chardonnay–Viognier blend highlights the elegance of Dindori’s terroir with floral, citrus and creamy oak notes. The 2015 Turya C Reserve Tempranillo offers rich layers of dark berries, figs, tobacco and leather, while the Turya Private Barrique Reserva Shiraz showcases Dindori’s character through dark fruit and warm spice.

Turya will be available across the Palace’s acclaimed dining destinations, including Le Cirque, MEGU, The Library Bar, Jamavar and The Qube, as well as in guest rooms as part of the curated wine programme. Each venue will present bespoke pairings, turning Turya into a multisensory journey that complements European, Japanese and Indian culinary expressions.

Sharing the overarching vision, Preeti Makhija, General Manager, said, “Turya embodies our commitment to elevating the guest experience through thoughtful craftsmanship. At The Leela Palace New Delhi, we believe in creating offerings that are rooted in authenticity and shaped with intent. Turya is a reflection of that philosophy, bringing together our culinary vision, the artistry of winemaking and a deep respect for nature. It is an expression of who we are as a Palace: deeply connected to our community, our land and the evolving tastes of our guests.”

Exclusive and distinctive, Turya also offers guests a refined collectible, an elegant memento reflecting The Leela Palace New Delhi’s philosophy of luxury grounded in origin, authenticity and craftsmanship.
