Van Ardi works with indigenous Armenian grapes in Aragatsotn, a region with deep viticultural roots. The winery focuses on Areni and Kangun, varieties that define Armenian wine identity. Reserve Areni, the flagship expression, draws from the darker-skinned Areni grape, while Kangun offers a counterpoint in the portfolio. Wine Advocate has assessed both wines. The terroir of Aragatsotn—marked by elevation, continental climate, and volcanic soils—shapes the character of these bottlings. Van Ardi's commitment to local varieties positions it within Armenia's broader effort to reclaim and refine its native grape heritage.
