Alexandrea Winery 2024 Pinot Noir Rosé – Kotayk, Armenia
The Alexandrea 2024 Pinot Noir Rosé captures the soul of Armenia’s high-altitude terroir in a wine that is both radiant and refined. Crafted from hand-harvested Pinot Noir grapes grown in the scenic vineyards of Proshyan, Kotayk, this limited-production rosé stands as a celebration of elegance, freshness, and artistry.
Described by Stepan Baghdassarian as “one of the best rosés I have ever tasted from Armenia,” this vintage represents the next evolution in Armenian winemaking — combining purity of fruit with a sophisticated balance rarely found in the region.
Tasting Notes
A luminous pale salmon hue sparkles in the glass, hinting at the freshness within. The aromatics unfold with vibrant notes of strawberry, red raspberry, and rose petals, delicately layered with playful hints of bubble gum and wildflowers.
On the palate, the wine delivers a seamless balance of crisp minerality and juicy red fruit, with a texture that is both silky and invigorating. Flavors of fresh alpine strawberry, pomegranate, and pink grapefruit mingle with subtle floral undertones, leading to a long, elegant finish laced with whispers of jasmine and crushed herbs.
This Pinot Noir Rosé is at once lively and graceful — an exquisite dance between youthful energy and refined sophistication.
Winemaking & Craftsmanship
Each cluster of Pinot Noir is hand-selected at optimal ripeness and gently pressed to capture only the purest free-run juice. Fermentation occurs at low, controlled temperatures to preserve the grape’s natural aromatics and delicate hue. The result is a rosé that embodies the precision and finesse of Alexandrea Winery’s philosophy — every element crafted with patience, purpose, and passion.
With an alcohol level of 14.3%, this wine offers structure and body without losing its refreshing brightness — making it as versatile at the table as it is luxurious in the glass.
Food Pairing
Perfectly suited for elegant summer dining or year-round enjoyment, the Alexandrea Pinot Noir Rosé pairs beautifully with:
- Fresh seafood platters, grilled shrimp, or seared salmon
- Mediterranean mezze and seasonal salads
- Goat cheese with herbs, or creamy burrata with heirloom tomatoes
- Spicy Asian cuisine and fruit-based desserts
Serve chilled at 48–52°F (9–11°C) to highlight its vivid aromatics and refreshing acidity.
