Zorah Heritage Sirení 2019

Meet Zorah Heritage Sirení. This wine comes from the stunning highlands of Armenia, where the unique terroir and traditional approach come together to create a wine full of character. Zorah Heritage Sirení is produced in Vayots Dzor, Armenia, a region renowned for its ancient winemaking traditions. The mild climate, high-altitude vineyards, and volcanic soils create an ideal environment for growing high-quality grapes. This elegant red wine is composed of 80% Sireni and 20% Ararati grapes, each carefully selected and meticulously processed by the winemakers at Zorah Heritage. Both grape varieties are fermented separately in traditional Armenian karasses, partially underground. After blending, the wine is aged for about two years in clay amphorae and rough concrete vats, without epoxy coating, followed by another 12 months in the bottle. Zorah Heritage Sirení has an alcohol content of 13.5%, perfectly balanced for a harmonious tasting experience.
