RESERVE COLLECTION
Van Ardi Reserve Areni
Areni grown on our certified organic vineyards on the volcanic soils of Aragatsotn. In the cellar, it matured listening to music and aged 14 months in Armenian and French oak barrels. In the glass you’ll find a dark ruby hue, with aromas of dark cherries, black pepper, and hints of plum, clove, and vanilla. When you take a sip you’ll discover an elegant balance of layers, rich and structured tannin, beautiful length, and hopefully, much more. You can savor its journey today or allow it to continue traveling, as it has great aging potential.
Van Ardi Reserve Haghtanak
This bold red reserve is made from the unique Armenian Haghtanak variety: rich in colour, aromas, and structure. The aromas set the stage with hints of dark cherries, coffee, and smoke. The palate is eager to greet you, like an elegant but lively steed ready to play. It is smoky, and rugged, with smooth layers of dark cherries and black mulberries. The wine has balance, length, and depth you can surely age and indulge down the line as well as now.
Van Ardi Reserve Milagh
This bottle of Van Ardi’s Milagh Reserve showcases one of Armenia’s most ancient and fascinating grape varieties, Milagh. Grown exclusively on our certified organic estate, this wine was aged for 12 months in a thoughtful mix of French and Armenian oak barrels. Its medium ruby to deep garnet hue introduces aromas of dates, plum, and a delicate hint of tarragon. On the palate, it unfolds into notes of dark chocolate, coffee, apricot seeds, and a touch of amaro, with a texture reminiscent of black mulberry and fig. Balanced and elegant, with growing tannins and a smoky finish, this wine is a bold testament to Armenia’s winemaking heritage, perfect for pairing or savoring on its own, with excellent aging potential.
Van Ardi Reserve Syrah
Our Syrah reserve continues to be a proud manifestation of expat beauty. Thriving in the Armenian foothills of Aragatsotn, this volcanic Syrah has beautiful aromas so captivating it is hard to move on to the sip. Those of blueberries and blackberries transition to a rich body embellished with sour cherries, cranberries and cream, and notes of vanilla, chestnut and wild honey on the palate. The wine is wildly elegant and mature; a definite keeper.
TOR TORI COLLECTION
Tor Tori Red
Tor Tori Red is a dynamic blend of 90% Areni and 10% Syrah, crafted to express a balance of freshness and complexity. The Areni grapes, unaged to preserve their vibrant character, meet the Syrah, aged for depth and structure. The result is a wine with a ruby, inky hue and aromas of sour cherries, plum, black pepper, and a hint of fall spices like cinnamon. Its full-bodied palate delights with flavors of sour cherries, chocolate-covered dried black currants, sun-dried tomatoes, and dried red figs, offering a caressing complexity that lingers long after the last sip. This bold yet approachable red is your perfect companion to hearty dishes or quiet moments of indulgence.
Tor Tori White
Armenia’s historic golden grape, Voskehat reveals its full charm in this estate-grown wine. Sunlit in hue, it offers inviting notes of melon, apricot, and white peach, layered with a whisper of vanilla and stony minerality. Refreshing yet full in character, it’s a wine of quiet complexity and enduring grace.
CLASSIC COLLECTION
Van Ardi Estate Blend
The Van Ardi classic Estate Blend red is a fan favorite for a reason. The wine presents itself with its dark ruby color. The Areni (40%) gives bright cherries and currents on the nose, while the other two varietals: Haghtanak (35%), & Milagh (25%); give their rich body and structure. Coming through with deep notes of blackberries, pomegranate and plums, and hints of roasted spices. Our goal to produce wines that are true to the vineyard we get life from. The minerality of the soil and spiciness from the light oak aging makes it a great pairing for a light dinner and company you would open a second bottle with.
Van Ardi Rose
A vibrant rosé crafted from Areni grapes. This wine radiates with notes of strawberry, cherry, and grapefruit, touched with a hint of zest. Silky and fruit-forward, it finishes long and fresh, with bright acidity and a subtle minty lift. Lively, textured, and utterly drinkable with a crisp and cooling finish.
Van Ardi Kangun
A native Armenian white, Kangun shines here in a refreshing and elegant expression. Honey-tinted in the glass, it opens with a delicate floral bouquet, hints of pear, white grapefruit, and tropical fruit. Silky on the palate with a medium body and clean finish, it’s a graceful companion to light fare, or a moment of cool reprieve on a warm day. Ideal for light starters, salads dishes, or as a refreshing aperitif.
