Classification

How it is classified

  • Estate. Own grapes, own winemaking and bottling — all confirmed by sources

Since 10.2026 labels are given only on confirmed facts; the former category “Small family winery” is no longer used. What changed — in the methodology

  • Grapes

    Confirmed

    Own vineyards

    Own land confirmed; no sign of bought-in grapes was found.

    Producer's website, Oct 2026

  • Winemaking

    Confirmed

    Own winemaking and bottling

    Own cellar or marani, in the producer's own words.

    Producer's website, Oct 2026

  • Output

    From indirect evidence

    Small · under 100,000 L a year

    A narrow range from one region and a named winemaker are signs of a small producer, not a confirmation.

About

About the winery

An estate in Aghavnadzor, Vayots Dzor. Its Areni and Voskehat vineyard was planted in 2005 on a previously uncultivated, waterless plot facing the Areni-1 cave, at 1,233 metres. The winery was built next to the vineyard and started up in 2019; the first red, white and rosé were bottled on 7 September 2020 from the 2019 harvest. The owners describe the volumes as very limited.
