Voskehat, or “Golden Seed,” is revered for its ability to encapsulate the terroir’s essence, offering a complex bouquet and depth that are unparalleled. The Aragatsotn region, characterized by its high altitude, volcanic soil, and the unique microclimate provided by the proximity to Mount Aragats, contributes significantly to the distinct profile of this wine. These natural factors, combined with the diurnal temperature variations, create the perfect conditions for the Voskehat grape to thrive, developing its characteristic aromatics and flavors while retaining a refreshing acidity.
The 2021 harvest for ArmAs Voskehat was marked by optimal weather conditions, allowing for the grapes to reach their full potential in terms of balance between sugar and acidity. This careful timing ensures that the wine produced is not only reflective of the varietal’s characteristics but also of the year’s specific climatic conditions, making each vintage a unique snapshot of time.
In crafting the Voskehat Aragatsotn 2021, ArmAs employs a winemaking approach that honors both the grape’s legacy and the potential for innovation. The grapes are hand-harvested at dawn to preserve their natural freshness, followed by a meticulous selection process to ensure only the best fruit is used. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks to maintain the varietal’s vibrant fruit flavors, followed by a period of aging on the lees to add complexity and texture to the wine.
The result is a wine that captivates with its clarity and brightness, showcasing a pale straw color with hints of green. On the nose, the Voskehat Aragatsotn 2021 reveals a bouquet of white flowers, ripe pear, and hints of citrus, complemented by subtle mineral undertones that speak to the volcanic soil of its origin.

This Voskehat is more than just a wine; it is an ambassador for Armenian viticulture, showcasing the potential of indigenous grape varieties when nurtured in their native soil. It pairs beautifully with a wide range of dishes, from light seafood and salads to richer poultry and creamy pasta dishes, making it a versatile choice for any occasion.
