0.75 ltr 12.5%

Gevorkian Ariats Kangoun Carbonic Karasi comes from Armenia, one of the oldest wine producing countries in the world. This wine is made from the Kangoun grape variety, which grows in the fertile Ararat Valley. The wine undergoes a unique process of 15 days of carbonic maceration, during which whole berries ferment within their skins without the addition of sulphites. After fermentation, the wine is aged for six months in ancient Armenian clay amphorae known as karases, which give the wine a characteristic nuance. With an alcohol content of 12.5%, this wine reflects the rich heritage of Armenian viticulture.
