“The soul of a wine is when it speaks to a place. If you don’t have that, then you’ve missed everything. And that quest is why we’re so fired up to be here.”

A partnership founded in friendship and a love of wine.

International winemaker Paul Hobbs and the Yacoubian family journey to the Birthplace of Wine to craft modern, world-class wines from the ancient indigenous varieties found in the high altitude, mineral-rich soils of Vayots Dzor, Armenia.

Over 6,000 years of wine.

Our vineyard rests a stone’s throw from the Areni-1 Cave, the oldest known evidence of winemaking dating back to 4,100 BCE.

Crafting modern, world-class wines from ancient indigenous varieties.

The Yacoubian-Hobbs vineyard sits at 4,500 feet in elevation on mineral-rich, volcanic soils. With our local team, Paul and the Yacoubians are growing and crafting wines that confirm Armenia’s role in both the ancient history of winemaking and its highly relevant present and future among the world's great wine regions.
