In southern Artsakh, near the Armenian border, an ancient temple called Kataro stands high above mountains and valleys, surrounded by wildflowers and fragrant herbs. Named after this remarkable place, Kataro wine embodies the beauty and resilience of the land, a tradition preserved by the Avetissyan family through generations, despite wars and blockades.
With 10 hectares of vineyards, Domaine Avetissyan cultivates the indigenous Khndoghni grape on the clay-rich slopes of Togh at 600–700 meters. Known for its depth and tannic richness, Khndoghni produces expressive, structured wines that capture the nobility of Artsakh’s natural landscape.
