Voskeni Siro Melody is an elegant Armenian white wine made from the Voskehat grape variety. Voskehat is an ancient grape variety that can still be found in vineyards in Armenia and Azerbaijan. Traditionally, the Voskehat grape is used to make (sweet) fortified wines. However, with the rapid rise of Armenian winemaking, you occasionally encounter it in a dry white wine. Voskeni Siro Melody (literally translated as Love Melody) is a romantic wine that you can enjoy with your loved one. This beauty has an alcohol content of 13% and is suitable for many occasions. Cheers!        

Voskeni Siro Melody presents an intense lemon-yellow color in the glass. The nose is fruity, refined, with a hint of floral and spicy notes. The wine carries aromas of ripe melon, green apple, white blossoms, citrus fruits like lemon and grapefruit, complemented by hints of white pepper and Armenian spices. On the palate, it features fresh acidity and a round body with a velvety smooth medium finish. This beauty pairs perfectly with white meat, white fish dishes, seafood, shellfish, light appetizers, salads, and even fruit. In short, a wine that suits any gastronomic occasion, but also makes a great aperitif. Please serve between 8 and 10 degrees.

VOSKENI Wines, located in Sardarapat, Ararat Valley, is a family-run winery. The vineyard was established by family ancestor Smbat Mateossian, a successful businessman from Boston who moved to Armenia in the early 1920s. He dreamed of having his own winery. Unfortunately, Smbat was oppressed, and his property was confiscated during the Bolshevik era. In 2008, he repurchased the vineyard filled with authentic grape varieties and made his dream of producing quality wine come true. The diverse microclimates of the Ararat Valley and the extraordinary terroir create unique conditions for cultivating exceptional grape varieties and producing elegant wines that reflect the 6,000-year-old rich and authentic winemaking traditions.
