Ayvaz 2020 Areni Dry Red Wine Armenia
Ayvaz 2020 Areni Dry Red Wine – Vayots Dzor, Armenia
An homage to legacy, crafted with passion.
Description & Tasting Notes:
Experience the elegance of Armenian winemaking with the Ayvaz 2020 Areni Dry Red Wine, a handcrafted expression of Armenia’s iconic Areni grape, sourced from the high-altitude vineyards of Vayots Dzor—the cradle of ancient winemaking. This ruby-red wine is a tribute to Ayvaz Hakobyan, a revered Armenian winemaker whose legacy continues through this bottle, made possible by his loving family.
On the nose, this Areni shows off medium-intensity aromatics with distinctly peppery tones, freshly ground black pepper, dried mint, and subtle hints of bay leaf. On the palate, it’s wonderfully balanced, with fresh, youthful tannins, vibrant acidity, and a long-lasting, spicy finish that makes it an excellent food companion.
Pairing Recommendation: Perfect with grilled red meats, lamb, or traditional Armenian barbeque (khorovats).
Why You'll Love It:
- 100% Areni grape—Armenia’s most celebrated indigenous variety
- From the legendary Vayots Dzor region, home to the world’s oldest known winery
- A story of heritage and craftsmanship, honoring a generational winemaker
- Ideal for fans of Pinot Noir or Gamay seeking something more soulful and unique
Enjoy with: Roast lamb, aged cheeses, or dishes with earthy herbs like rosemary and thyme.
