Ancient World

Armenian wine

Armenian wine comes from one of the oldest wine producing regions of the world, with clear evidence of the first production beginning in the 5th millennium BCE. Red, white and rose wines are produced throughout Armenia, which has seen a transformation in quality and global recognition since the end of the Soviet era, when much Armenian wine was produced by collectives as bulk wine or used for sherry or brandy production. Today many Armenian wines are celebrated for their exceptional quality and unique character.
