Just an hour's drive from Yerevan, at our small family-run production in Bambakashat village, we make wines, distillates, and cider. We have an incredibly beautiful view of the Ararat Valley and offer fascinating wine tours and tastings!
Our winery was founded in the village of Bambakashat in 2019 by the Markaryan family, together with Leonid Yushkevich and winemaker Sergey Stepanyan. We produce wine exclusively from our own grapes, grown on their own roots and harvested by hand.
our essence
Ararat valley - one of the most hot terroir on the Earth
Our historic terroir is located in unique climatic conditions. Most of the rainfall occurs in late spring and early summer, followed by a long dry season with hot sunny days and fairly cool nights. This allows for controlled irrigation and creates a naturally disease-resistant environment for the vines.

FAMILY VALUES
Not many people know that there are very few vineyards left in the world with vines growing on their own roots. The phylloxera epidemic destroyed most of them. Our terroir allows us to cultivate own-rooted vines, following millennia-old traditions.
