The vineyard soil is rocky and sandy, which provides unique conditions for grape maturation. Due to different heights and nearly five different geographical positions of our vineyards, the grapes mature differently and the harvest is done in stages, which usually take up to 20-25 days. Old Bridge wines got gold and silver medals in such European Wine Awards as Mundus vini and Concours Mondial Bruxels It will take you 2 hours to get to Yerevan
