MOONQ RESERVE 2023 enters the Armenian market — and soon, the international stage.

Each bottle is a reminder of the journey of Nrneni small vineyard:
0.5 hectares. Limited yield. Unwavering belief.

Aged for 15 months in Artsakh oak barrels, in patience and silence.
MOONQ Nrneni RESERVE 2023 — only 600 bottles.
MOONQ Areni–Khndoghni–Nrneni RESERVE 2023 — only 300 bottles.

These numbers represent more than rarity.
They reflect a responsibility — to preserve the story of the indigenous Nrneni grape and present it with integrity.
The Areni–Khndoghni–Nrneni blend reflects the core philosophy of MOONQ — the strength of unity. Areni, the most widely planted grape of Armenia. Khndoghni, the signature and most emblematic variety of Artsakh. Nrneni, rare and fragile, preserved through my small 0.5-hectare vineyard. Together, they form MOONQ. This wine is not simply a blend of varieties. It is a dialogue between regions, histories, and identities — brought into balance in a single bottle.

My sincere thanks to everyone for supporting this release, and to everyone whose guidance, trust, and honest critique help refine MOONQ.

When you open a bottle, I hope you taste not only the wine — but the conviction behind it.
