Loved this! Medium weight, easy drinking red with bright little acid-and-tannic notes, strawberry jam up front, sort of a plum cassis thing in back… delish!! — 3 years ago
Very crisp and light. Tropical notes with lychee and lemongrass . Only Armenian wine I’ve found in Dallas! Great for our hot summers! — 3 years ago
Nose has amazing Gardenia aromas, sweet honey, freshly milled white pepper and cold wax.
Palate has over-ripe cantaloupe, honey drizzle on green melon, (light) lemon/orange zest and juiced Clementine (faint). Light on the acidity and a bit long on the finish. Decanted 60m. (92-93 points, very nice)
Spectacular pairing to fried eggs (backyard egg factory paying its dues even in the cold of winter) over toasted couscous, softened garlic & red onion, fresh green onion and the star of the dish za'atar (I could eat this on cereal!). — 4 years ago
Absolutely unexpected red wine from Armenia, Areni ungrafted grapes selected for this particular wine from ArmAs estate provides a great balance and incredible smoothness that will surprise anyone. Rounded tannins and balanced structure allows to have more than one glass. Cheers! — 3 months ago
One day in Armenia. Lovely dinner at Sherep with Joe paired with this perfect 2018 dry wine. — 3 years ago
2019 Armenian! Dry, not sweet and medium bodied. Very nice white wine. — 3 years ago
Trendy native varietal from Armenia. Smooth light bodied red with hints of red berries and an herby finish. Interesting wine.
Would love to pair with lamb maybe. — 4 months ago
Nose has tart strawberry, ripe black cherry, blackberry, dried soil with peat and faint creamy oak notes.
Palate has ripe blackberry, ripe cherry, dried garden soil, thawed strawberries, light cedar influence, decent finish but we're underwhelmed overall. Maybe closing up now, revisit in 3-5Y, 2025-27.
Cork pulled, slow oxidation for 3H.
Solid pairing to toasted Israeli couscous, za'atar and lightly fried eggs from the backyard egg factory. For us, eggs are always a great pair to Bourgogne Rouge, they balance wonderfully.
(Also, for the record, no photo trickery on the food pic, our Australorp eggs are indeed that orange; Good diet equals good eggs.) — 3 years ago
