Armenian Wine (Areni)

Armenia

The Noah valley wine: Armenian wine — from Areni noir grapes grown around the Areni-1 cave (where the world's oldest winery, c. 4100 BC, was excavated) in Vayots Dzor's volcanic soils — Armenia's modern wine revival (Zorah's Karasì is the amphora icon).

What it is

The Noah valley wine: Armenian wine — from Areni noir grapes grown around the Areni-1 cave (where the world's oldest winery, c. 4100 BC, was excavated) in Vayots Dzor's volcanic soils — Armenia's modern wine revival (Zorah's Karasì is the amphora icon). Origins: the Areni-1 cave's press, vats and jars are the oldest known winery; legend adds Noah planting the first vine at Ararat's foot. Made from: Areni, Voskehat and other native grapes, fermented in karas (amphorae) or modern tanks. How it's made: 1) Grow at 1,000-1,500 m altitude. 2) Ferment (amphora for the traditionalists). 3) Age; bottle the volcanic minerality. Served: with khorovats (barbecue) and lavash at Yerevan wine bars (Saryan street's wine row). Flavor: Areni = cherry, spice, elegant tannin. Strength: 12.5-14%. Culture: Armenia's wine is archaeology you can drink — the revival is national pride. See also: Ararat Brandy.
