Areni (Armenian indigenous grape) is a wine grape used in the process of red winemaking.
This wine typically appears light to medium ruby in the glass, with a smell of mulberry and huckleberries.
Thanks to the strong acidic content of this wine, the strong huckleberry & mulberry flavors give a bright juicy flavor.
This wine also has faint tannins in the background along with peppery notes which tend to linger in the mouth at the end, adding a great finish to the wine.

This red grape hails from a town of the same name in south Armenia. Because of geographical isolation and its harsh growing climate, it was never affected by phylloxera. Its thick skin protects it from the summer sun and the harsh, high-elevation, continental climate. It makes red wine with light hue, high clarity, fresh acidity, and soft tannins. Wines made from this grape can have sour cherry, herb, spice, and grassy flavors â which, at times, remind us of a cross between Pinot Noir and Sangiovese. The grape gained some international fame when Zorah Karasi, a varietal wine made from Areni, was featured in the list of Bloombergâs Top Ten Wines of 2012.
