- Golden Grape ArmAs was founded in 2007 by Armenak Aslanian, who repatriated to his motherland for the realization of goals that involve the intertwined aspects of family, heritage, culture, and progress, with personal values and responsibilities he maintains as a father, an entrepreneur, and as an Armenian. Alongside his daughters, he preserves an 80-year-old family tradition of wine, naming ArmAs in honor of his grandfather Armenak Aslanian Sr., the original winemaker in the family. He continues to develop ArmAs Estate with a vision to partake in upholding and revitalizing Armenia’s winemaking legacy, in the oldest known area for viticulture and enology.
The ArmAs estate is located in the Aragatsotn Province (pronounced ARRA-got-sart'n), with vineyards ranging from 700 to 1,900 metres above sea level. The altitude promotes a long ripening period; the vines produce concentrated fruit nourished by 300 days of sunshine per year, balanced by a freshness created by the cool summer nights. The ungrafted vines are planted in soils comprising 30 layers of volcanic, limestone, and clay composition. The vineyard is made up of native varieties, and the indigenous Karmrahyut (pronounced KAR-mayut) really thrives in this terroir.
Armenia, known as the birthplace of wine, is also the site of the oldest known winemaking ruins, which date back to 6100 years. Founded by Armen Aslanyan, ArmAs is revitalizing Armenia's winemaking legacy. Situated on the 45th parallel, the estate covers 180 hectares of stunning vineyards and orchards on an undulating terrain of complex soils set against the backdrop of Mount Ararat. Passionate and accomplished winemaker, Emilio Del Medico, has paid homage to this heritage by creating elegant and distinct wines from estate-grown native varieties.
