The Heritage Sireni is an 80/20 red blend of Sireni and Ararati. The bunches of dark-berry Sireni (aka Khndoghni) are indigenous to Artsakh and resistant to the heat but don’t do well in the cold. Ararati, named for Mt. Ararat, is a large, late-ripening white grape from Vayotz Dzor that’s new to the winemaking scene. Close to being forgotten, Ararati is now being revived. These two varieties are fermented separately in buried karasi (clay vessels), then blended, and aged in karasi for about 2 years.

  • Sireni with a small amount of Ararati
  • Sireni is found at 400 meters above sea level in clay sedimentary soils and is dry farmed
  • Clay soils
  • Ararati is found in the highlands of Vayotz Dzor at 1,300 meters above sea level, which is on the verge of extinction
  • Both grape varietals are fermented separately in traditional Armenian karasses, which are buried 3/4 in the ground. The Ararati is with skin contact
  • Following fermentation, they are blended together and aged for about 2 years in a mix of clay amphora (karasses) and rough concrete vats with no epoxy lining
  • Aged further in bottle for 12 months
