ARMENIAN WINE DINNER

  • Community Tavern 4038 North Milwaukee Avenue Chicago, IL, 60641 United States (map)

TWO WINERIES FROM ONE FAMILY

Keush winery was created by Vahe Keushguerian with a desire to create a product that married extreme high elevation farming and un-grafted ancient varietals. The vineyards are planted on rich volcanic soil. It is an opus with a 6000 year origin. The vineyards are positioned 500 metres from the Armenian/Azeri border and at 1800 meters are the highest in the country and among the highest in the world. Keush is a pioneer in making a Méthode Traditionelle sparkling wine from indigenous Armenian grape varietals. We are unexpectedly pairing that very sparkler with our dessert course this dinner. Zulal wines was founded by Aimee Keushguerian in 2017, introducing Zulal Areni Reserve 2015 and Zulal Voskehat 2017. Aimee is the daughter to Keush founder, Vahe Kushguerian. Zulal means pure in Armenian. These wines are intended to express the purest characteristics of Armenian autochthonous grape varieties. Among the highest vineyard sites, extreme climate and volcanic soils give these wines their distinctive character.
