Zorah Voski 2022

Voskéat, meaning “Golden Seed,” is often described as the queen of Armenia’s white grapes.

Alongside Garandmak, it is one of Armenia’s ancient indigenous varieties, cultivated across the country for millennia. In Vayots Dzor, however, the combination of high altitude, warm days and cool nights allows these grapes to develop exceptional balance, freshness and character.

Terroir

Zorah’s vineyards sit at around 1,400 metres above sea level, among the highest vineyards in the world.

The soils are phylloxera-free, sandy and limestone-rich, with large stones and naturally low vigour. The vines are 30–40 years old and ungrafted, growing on their own roots.

Vinification & Ageing

Fermentation takes place in large, temperature-controlled concrete vats using natural yeasts, with no epoxy lining.

The wine is then aged for 11 months in rough concrete vats, followed by a further six months in bottle before release.

The result is a refined expression of Armenia’s ancient white grapes, shaped by altitude, limestone soils and traditional low-intervention winemaking.
