Zorah Karasi Areni Noir 2013

The details of the Zorah property read like something of a fantasy. The vines are clones of the indigenous Areni Noir taken directly from a local monestary that dates to the 13th century, planted on their original rootstock at over 4,500 feet in elevation. The wines are partially aged in old Armenian amphorae, buried in the ground and sealed with wax. This is all especially intriguing, but the wines are even more so. One smell and sip of the Zorah's Karasi and you know that you're not facing a wine like anything you've ever had before.
