Often referred to as the Queen of Armenian grape varieties Voskehat, literally meaning ‘Golden Seed’, earns its folk love for having a diverse and very rich aromatic bouquet.
Hin Areni Voskehat is a finely crafted wine, made from grapes harvested in the historic village of Areni, known for its millennial wine making traditions.

More info
Vayots Dzor Region and Areni village in particular has been the cradle of Armenian winemaking for millennia. The findings give the grounds to assert that Armenia is one of the ancient areas where grape cultivation, processing and wine-making was developed.
A 6,100-year-old winery was discovered in 2007 in the the village of Areni. Areni is in the same time the name of a village, an indigenous grape variety and wine appellation in the southern part of Armenia.
“Hin Areni” vineyards are situated at an elevation of 1215-1250 meters above the sea level, in and around Areni village. Long dry summers, with remarkably vivid sunlight and high daytime temperatures contrast with cool nights encouraging a lengthy growing season and pushing harvest to the end of October.
At “Hin Areni” we create wines from indigenous grape varieties coming from centuries: Areni and Voskehat. We strive to ensure that grape is given the chance to show its beauty and express the essence of the terroir. The sedimentary and rich volcanic soil, coupled with high elevation climate of Areni gives our wines an expressive aromatic bouquet and bold structure.

Voskehat Queen
Very fresh. Medium body with floral and fruity notes. In mouth it's like a tropical fruit.

Excellent wine!
I highly recommend this refreshing, dry white wine. There is a very high novelty factor to the Hin Areni wines because of their background story: Areni is one of the oldest (if not the oldest) wine making areas in the world. I have presented this bottle as a gift whilst sharing this anecdote. It also makes for good conversation when cracking open the bottle at a dinner party. In short: a novel, delicious wine worthy of much attention.
