Description
ZORAH
KARASI
Possibly one of the oldest grape varieties in the world Areni has been present in Armenia for millennia.
In fact in the archaeological excavations of Areni Cave in Vayotz Dzor, Armenia ( dating back 6000 years) pips and stems were unearthed, carbon dated, and the DNA analyzed. It was established that the modern-day Areni variety can be traced back to these ancient pips. Never grafted and on its roots, it is 100% indigenous to this land & with a unique DNA profile that does not match any other. Extremely resistant to disease and with a very thick skin Areni Noir has developed the unique capacity to adapt perfectly to the extreme climate of Vayotz Dzor, its natural habitat.
Zorik Gharibian ist ein Geschäftsmann mit armenischen Wurzeln. Als er ab1999 vermehrt Zeit in seinem Heimatland verbringt, erkennt er die tiefverwurzelte Weinkultur seines Heimatlandes, die während der sowjetischenHerrschaft beinahe verschwand. So gab er seinen ursprünglichen Plan voneinem Weingut in der Toskana zugunsten seiner alten Heimat Armenien aufund gründete 2006 Zorah Wines. Armenien gilt als Wiege des Weinbaus miteiner über 6000 Jahre alten Geschichte. Dieses wertvolle Kulturgut will ZorikGharibian mit autochthonen Rebsorten und alten Techniken wie derAmphoren-Ausbau in seinen Weinen aufrechterhalten.
