Tasting notes of winery's winemaker

This outstanding wine is produced from fine Armenian grape variety Haghtanak harvested from old vines situated at 1000m altitude above sea level. For creation of Voskevaz Karasi Collection, Haghtanak was used the harmonious combination of traditional karas (Armenian clay amphorae) and local oak barrel.

A dark crimson-red color wine with multiple aromas of ripe berries, black currant and oak wood. This red nectar is full-bodied with mature silky tannins and a very long-lasting persistence.

This wine represents the real native character of Armenia.

Vinification: Fermentation and maceration in traditional karases (clay amphoraes of 1000 litres) at 16-25 °C.

Aging process: Aged in Armenian oak barrels of 225 litres for 18 months.

Voskevaz Winery

Voskevaz Winery was founded in 1932. Both traditional and modern wine-making technologies are used to produce incredible “Voskevaz” wines. Only native grape varieties such as Hagtanak, Kangun, Areni, Muscat Vardabuyr, Milagh and Voskehat (Kharji) are used in our wine production. The concept of the Winery is to recreate and keep the heritage of traditional Armenian wine-making. In order to follow this concept our winemakers use ancient 100 years old karases (Armenian clay amphora) for wine ageing. Due to the unique Armenian terroir and ideal climate Voskevaz Winery’s team creates indigenous Armenian wines.
