WINE MAKING PROCESS
Alluria Rosé is produced using traditional Armenian winemaking techniques. The grapes are handpicked and undergo spontaneous fermentation with wild yeasts in large clay amphorae, known as karas. This natural process is carried out without the addition of sulfites. The winery's location in the Armavir region and the sourcing of grapes from the high-altitude Vayots Dzor region are integral to the wine's identity. Alluria Wines emphasizes a natural approach, aiming to preserve the authentic expression of the indigenous Areni grape and the Armenian terroir.
