In the heart of Armenia, under the majestic presence of Mount Ararat, Karas Wines stands at the forefront of a wine revolution. The name "Karas" refers to the traditional Armenian amphora, an ancient clay vessel that has been used for winemaking for over 6,000 years. This centuries-old connection to Armenia's winemaking traditions drives the vision of Karas Wines: to restore Armenia's role as a wine nation and produce wines that garner admiration worldwide.
Although Armenia has a long history of winemaking, modern techniques were absent from production for many years. This changed with the arrival of Karas Wines. Their turning point came with the appointment of an experienced Argentine winemaker from Mendoza, brought in to modernize their production methods. Additionally, Michel Rolland, a globally respected wine consultant, was engaged to further refine their processes. This combination of craftsmanship and innovation breathed new life into Armenian winemaking.
Since its establishment in 2003, Karas Wines has carefully selected vineyards near Yerevan, at the foot of the majestic Ararat. The vineyards thrive on rich, black volcanic soils and are situated at altitudes ranging from 400 to 1,100 meters, providing ideal conditions for growing premium grapes. Inspired by a passion for quality, Karas Wines creates wines that pay homage to Armenia’s centuries-old winemaking heritage while catering to the tastes of the modern consumer. Thanks to the interplay of sun-drenched vineyards and fertile volcanic soils, the grapes develop a distinctive character that expresses Armenia’s unique terroir in every bottle.
