TL;DR
In Bodrum, Prosecco is usually available in upscale restaurants and marina venues, while most standard places serve Turkish sparkling instead. Decent local white and rosé wines are typically around 900–1,800 TRY per bottle, while imported Prosecco is more often 1,800–4,000 TRY.
At higher-end restaurants around Bodrum Marina and Yalıkavak Marina, imported Prosecco is usually on the wine list, but more often by the bottle than by the glass. A realistic price range is about 1,800–4,000 TRY per bottle, and sometimes 350–600 TRY per glass if available.
In regular seafood restaurants and meyhanes, you’re more likely to find Turkish sparkling than Prosecco, such as Kavaklıdere Altın Köpük or Sevilen Pırlanta. It is usually much cheaper than imported bottles, roughly 900–1,800 TRY, and generally considered perfectly decent for a holiday meal.
If you want decent white or rosé at a sensible price, it’s better to skip house wine and choose known Turkish producers like Kayra, Kavaklıdere, Doluca, or Sevilen. In Bodrum restaurants, a solid white or rosé is usually around 220–400 TRY per glass and 900–1,800 TRY per bottle, with branded wines being much more consistent than the cheapest poured house option.
