2021 Zorah Karasi Areni Noir

Areni is the native variety, Karasi means 'from amphora', and Zorah is the winery. That bit out of the way, we can concentrate on describing this hardy, chunky, big Armenian red.

The wine sees ild yeast ferment in concrete, no oak here, then aged for 12 months in the Karas (amphora). Roasted meats, dark red fruit, some wildness, with plenty of tannin and power.

Truly a taste of wine history.
