Download or read book Wines of Armenia written by S. Margosian and published by . This book was released on 2021-11-22 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wine has always been an integral part of Armenian culture and heritage, even before Christianity and into ancient times. Grapes and wine are embedded into the core of Armenia's national identity. Recent discoveries have shown us that the world's first production of wine began 6,100 years ago in the Areni Cave in Armenia. With such a compelling history, deep traditions and a full heritage exist here in plenty. Yet, the world has limited knowledge about this richness. This book aims to close this knowledge gap and share the beauty and culture with the world. It is the the first and the most comprehensive guide about Armenian wineries and winemaking providing great detail about Armenian grapes, wine regions and wineries. As Mr. Margosian states: "If we don't embrace the Armenian history of wine and winemaking, we can't fully comprehend and evaluate wines in general. There will always be a part missing, and this book aims to fill that gap."

Book excerpt: This new edition of The Caucasus is a thorough update of an essential guide that has introduced thousands of readers to a complex region. Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia and the break-away territories that have tried to split away from them constitute one of the most diverse and challenging regions on earth, impressing the visitor with their multi-layered history and ethnic complexity. Over the last few years, the South Caucasus region has captured international attention again because of disputes between the West and Russia, its unresolved conflicts, and its role as an energy transport corridor to Europe. The Caucasus gives the reader a historical overview and an authoritative guide to the three conflicts that have blighted the region. Thomas de Waal tells the story of the "Five-Day War" between Georgia and Russia and recent political upheavals in all three countries. He also finds time to tell the reader about Georgian wine, Baku jazz and how the coast of Abkhazia was known as "Soviet Florida."
