Old Bridge Areni Reserve Armenia Red

Old Bridge Areni Reserve Armenia Red 2018

31.20 € Tax included

This beautiful Armenian red wine is the iconic cuvée of the Old Bridge Estate, made from 100% of the emblematic grape variety of red wines of Armenia, the black Areni, on a vineyard located at 1300 meters above sea level in the Arpa Valley and the oldest known wine region in the world, Vayots Dzor.

On the nose, it offers beautiful aromas of quince and plum with floral and honeyed notes, and on the palate, the acidity is very controlled, bringing a beautiful freshness on rich fruity aromas, supple tannins and a long and very pleasant finish. It will be the perfect accompaniment to red meats and spicy dishes.

The vineyard benefits from volcanic soils and rich in natural rocks and minerals and is located on steep hills facing south and southeast, at an altitude of more than 1000 meters. The climate offers long hours of sunshine during the day and cooler temperatures at night.

Forgotten for more than a century, the wines of Armenia are reborn in this cradle of viticulture where remains dating back almost 8000 years have been unearthed. Discover Armenian wines and wines from the Old Bridge Estate.
