Appearance: Beautiful, opulent, deep ruby red color, with garnet reflections at the edges. Dense, clean, and brilliant in the glass, with good legs.

Nose: Sumptuous and expressive bouquet. Frank notes of ripe red and black fruits (black cherries, prunes, and figs) intertwine, followed by a fascinating aromatic evolution that evokes black pepper, cinnamon, hints of fine tobacco, vanilla, and the distinguished toast of Caucasian oak.

Palate: Powerful, robust, and velvety entry. Fills the palate with mature and well-integrated tannins that provide a silky texture. Its balanced acidity offsets the opulence of the fruit, leading to a long, elegant, strictly dry finish with smoky persistence.

Precise Gourmet Pairing: Its imposing tannic architecture and Caucasian wood notes demand dishes of similar structure. It is a perfect companion for premium grilled meat cuts (Rib Eye, Tomahawk, or New York), slow-cooked stews, roasted lamb seasoned with fine herbs, and small game. It pairs extraordinarily well with mature cheese boards (aged Manchego, Parmigiano Reggiano, or smoked Gouda) and fine charcuterie. Within Mexican gastronomy, it is the ideal ally for complex moles (such as Oaxacan black mole), Hidalguense beef barbacoa, and premium rib tacos with a cheese crust.

What grapes are used in Nuraz Red Dry?

It is made with a balanced blend of Haghtanak and Milagh, two indigenous red varieties from Armenia that provide structure, deep color, and characteristic fruity freshness.

What type of barrel is used for aging?

This wine is aged for 12 months in Caucasian oak barrels, which gives it unique spicy, balsamic, and woody notes, notably differentiating it from the profile of traditional French or American oak.

Does it require decanting?

Yes, as a concentrated Reserve line red, it is recommended to decant it for at least 30 minutes before consuming so that its aromas open up and the tannins express their maximum silkiness.

What is the ideal serving temperature?

It is advisable to serve it strictly at a temperature of 16°C (60.8°F) to maintain the perfect balance between its alcoholic potency, fruitiness, and its palette of subtle spices.
