Berdzor 2019 Areni Dry Red Wine Armenia
Berdzor 2019 Areni Dry Red Wine – Armenia
An authentic Armenian red rooted in history, culture, and the soul of the Caucasus.
Description & Tasting Notes:
Discover the depth and elegance of Armenia’s iconic native red grape with the Berdzor 2019 Areni Dry Red Wine, a handcrafted expression from the historic highland village of Berdzor (formerly Lachin) along the legendary Lachin Corridor that connects Goris to Artsakh. This wine is a tribute to the ancient viticultural traditions of Armenia—where grape growing and winemaking date back over 6,000 years.
Nestled in a valley rich with cultural memory, the vineyards of Berdzor thrive beside a flowing river and under the shadow of a centuries-old bridge. Here, harvests were once celebrated with songs of Komitas during the Navasard feast, a testament to the region’s deep-rooted connection to the land and its people.
Crafted entirely from 100% Areni, one of the oldest known grape varieties in the world, this dry red wine reveals a brilliant ruby red hue in the glass. On the nose, it opens with layered aromas of red cherry, cranberry, and dried rose petals, supported by hints of white pepper, fresh herbs, and a touch of earthiness.
The palate is vibrant and fresh, showcasing crushed red berries, pomegranate, and subtle spice, all balanced by soft tannins and lively acidity. Its mineral-driven finish reflects the volcanic soils and cool climate of the high-elevation vineyards.
Key Features:
- Made from 100% Areni, Armenia’s flagship indigenous grape
- Sourced from the historic vineyards of Berdzor, in the Lachin Corridor
- Traditional Armenian winemaking methods rooted in centuries of culture
- Light-to-medium bodied with remarkable complexity and finesse
Food Pairing Suggestions:
Perfect with lamb kebabs, stuffed grape leaves, eggplant dishes, or aged Armenian cheeses. Its bright acidity and subtle spice also make it a great companion to Mediterranean cuisine.
Serving Recommendation:
Serve slightly below room temperature (around 60–63°F) to highlight its elegance and freshness.
Ideal For:
Lovers of Pinot Noir, Nebbiolo, or Gamay seeking a unique, Old World-style red with a distinct sense of place.
