Northern Terroir has worked in Tavush since 2017, with vineyards near the village of Haghtanak at around 450 metres. Its main label is TUS, after the early medieval name of the district that later became Tavush. Beyond the still TUS Classic and TUS Reserve the winery makes the sparkling Zoé, working with local varieties including Lalvari and Banants.
