TUFENKIAN WINES. REVIVING A LOST HERITAGE
Not far from the oldest proven wine-making facility in the world, and in the shadow of Mt. Ararat where Noah was said to have made the first wines, we are dedicated to creating exceptional wines that reflect the distinctive and remarkable terroir of Armenia, its Vayotz Dzor region, and of our particular vineyards.
OUR WINES
Honoring the Traditions of Ancient Armenian Wine Making
Organic and Biodynamic
Our holistic approach, aimed at fostering biodiversity, elevates soil health and that of the vines, enabling us to create wines with profound depth and vitality.
Terroir-focused
We respectfully work with indigenous grapes evolved over millennia to thrive in the distinct terroirs of the Vayots Dzor region of Armenia, and to ferment them using only the yeasts naturally occurring on the grapes in each unique vineyard.
High Elevation
Vineyards at significant altitudes (1250-1500m) yield grapes with intense aromatics, vibrant freshness, and exceptional balance.
Winemaking Philosophy
We are committed to natural practices, minimal intervention, and the expression of unique terroir. It is only in this way that we can craft distinctively Armenian wines, rooted deeply in its soil and traditions.
