Even though Armenia has always played a vital role in the history of wine, only recently it has started making its wines known around the world. Armenian winemakers are now recognized for the high quality of their wines, which are backed by the ancient traditions of Armenian winemaking, use of latest technologies, and exceptional, mostly unique, endemic grapes varieties.

Winemaking in Armenia has a scientifically proven history of more than six thousand years.
In 2011, an international group of archaeologists announced the discovery of the world's oldest-known wine production facility in Armenia. Located in the Areni cave complex, the 6100 years old well-preserved complex consisted of a shallow basin to press grapes, a vat for storage, and fermentation jars. The discover also included grape seeds, remains of pressed grapes, and dozens of dried vines. The seeds were from Vitis vinifera, a type of grape still used to make wine.

Vine and Wine Foundation of Armenia was established in 2016 with the primary objective to preserve and develop the rich cultural and historical heritage of Armenian wine in Armenia and around the world.
