An Eden vineyard of “Areni” and “Voskehat” high-quality grapes has been established since 2005 on a waterless, uncultivated plot of land of the world’s first winepress in front of the Areni-1 bird cave. The vineyards are located at an altitude of 1233 m above sea level, and as a result the grapes have high quality indicators. The way from viticulture to winemaking was long and full of obstacles. It became possible to realize the winemaker’s long-standing dream, right in the area of the vineyard. 

In 2019, the Nor Areni winery was established, where, preserving the centuries-old winemaking traditions of the Areni community, equipping it with modern technologies and equipment, a very limited amount of red, white and rose wines were produced from that vineyard for the first time.
