Domaine ZORAH
Karasi

Vayots Dzor may not be Armenia's largest wine-growing region, but it is undoubtedly its most prestigious, with a history dating back to the very origins of viticulture: the first known wine-making cellar can be found here, dating back to the 4th millennium BC. This high-altitude vineyard (1400m to 1650m), isolated from the rest of the world by its steep slopes, was spared phylloxera and is still entirely planted with ungrafted autochthonous grape varieties.

Karasi follows in the tradition of these ancient wines: 100% aréni noir (one of the oldest known grape varieties), organic viticulture, indigenous yeast fermentation, ageing in traditional amphorae (Karas)... A full-bodied, fleshy wine with aromas of blackcurrant, graphite and pepper.
