A rich Areni Reserve with ripe cherry, blackberry, dried plum, caramel, vanilla and cedar.
NOA Areni Reserve 2015 is hand harvested from selected plots in Rind and Aghavnadzor. More than 12 months in new French oak gives this indigenous Armenian red depth, powerful tannins and extended ageing potential.
Why this wine matters
This reserve gives Areni a more powerful, oak-matured expression, combining fruit from noted Vayots Dzor villages with the structure and complexity expected of a long-lived red.
