ArmAs Karmrahyut

A rich deep garnet red in colour. The bouquet shows intense aromas of mature red fruits, rose petals and spice which prelude a palate of pure vibrance. This is powerful, full-bodied and achieves excellent balance with firm tannins and finishes on notes of honey, laurel and vanilla. A beautiful melange in wild harmony on the finish.

Armenia is known as the birthplace of wine, with biblical references to the region being planted with vines. Armenia also hosts the site of the oldest known winemaking ruins, which date back 6100 years. Founded by Armen Aslanyan, ArmAs is revitalising Armenia's historic winemaking legacy. Situated on the 45th parallel, the estate covers 180 hectares of stunning vineyard and orchards, on an undulating terrain of complex soils set against the backdrop of Mount Ararat. Passionate winemaker Emilio del Medico pays homage to this heritage by creating elegant and distinct wines from estate grown native varieties. The ArmAs estate is located in the Aragatsotn Province (pronounced ARRA-gotsart'n), with vineyards ranging from 700 to 1,900 metres above sea-level. The ungrafted vines are planted in soils comprising 30 layers of volcanic, limestone and clay composition and all the grapes are manually harvested at optimum maturity.
