Zorah, Voskì Armenia 2021

Vinous Reverie Notes
Winery: Voskeat in translation "Golden seed" is considered Queen of Armenia’s grapes. Both ancient native grape varieties, Voskeat and Garandmak, have been present in Armenia for millennia. Both Varieties are present throughout Armenia’s territory but, the exceptional terroir of Vayotz Dzor, with its high altitudes and elevated daytime temperatures but cool nights, yield distinctively balanced fruit in this region and highlight the full potential of these grapes. The pinnacle of high altitude viniculture Zorah’s vineyards are at 4,500 ft. A Phylloxera free terroir with low vigor, sub-alkaline, sandy, soil rich in limestone and large stones. From 30-40 year old vines. All  vines are on their own roots. Tasting Notes: The wine is floral and spicy with rich vibrant stone fruit. Fresh on the palate with vivid acidity and a layered complexity, with real depth.
