- 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 honour of his grandfather Armenak Aslanian Sr., the original winemaker in the family. He continues to develop ArmAs Estate with a vision to uphold and revitalise Armenia’s winemaking legacy in the oldest known area for viticulture and oenology.
After meticulous selection, the grapes were fermented at controlled temperatures of 25 to 27°C with selected yeasts. Lees contact with monthly bâtonnage gave the wine a rich, textured body. Aged for a total of 24 months, the wine was transferred to Artsakh oak barrels for 12 months, which impart subtle vanilla, cinnamon, clove, and caramel characters; followed by a further 12 months in French oak, which delivered delicate oak spice.
A rich, opulent Karmrahyut with bold and intense aromas showing real complexity, with notes of cranberries, cherries, plums, rose petals, and hints of white pepper and cinnamon completing the aromatic melange. Full-bodied on the palate, with a mineral-framed deep fruit core, this has a lovely, lingering finish.

| Winery | The ArmAs estate is located in the Aragatsotn Province (pronounced ARRA-got-sart'n), with vineyards ranging from 700 to 1,900 meters above sea level. The altitude promotes a long ripening period; the vines produce concentrated fruit nourished by 300 days of sunshine annually, balanced by a freshness created by the cool summer nights. The ungrafted vines are planted in soils comprising 30 volcanic, limestone, and clay layers. The vineyard comprises native varieties, and the Indigenous Karmrahyut (pronounced KAR-may) thrives in this terroir. |
