Wine is proud, stubborn, and honest; sometimes too bold, and the wines of Koghb are brave and unbreakable. Gagik Aghababyan, who has almost 40 years of winemaking experience in the border village of Noyemberyan region, is attracted not only by his love for this drink but also, most importantly, by his boundless love and faith in the Motherland and its strong and independent future.

“Kanch Gyugh”(Call to the Village) enterprise presents the wines of Koghb. The goal of creating wines made from endemic grape varieties is also their preservation and development. Gagik Aghababyan, the author of the “Kanch Gyugh”(Call to the Village) brand, says that he became a winemaker at the age of 5 when he tasted wine for the first time in the wine factory of Berdavan village. Having worked for many years in factories in Ijevan, Berdavan, and abroad, he thought that he should have his own factory in order to implement all his ideas.

Recently, the Koghba Wines Winery was also opened. The winery is unique because the customer can taste wine and only then buy it.

They are also going to export the wines to Europe and Russia. Recently, they have created black brandy, which is the first one in Armenia.

In the “Kanch Village” enterprise, they are confident that the extraordinary nature of Armenia, full of incredible history and beautiful traditions, can create only magical wine. They prove by their work that they are not the past of winemaking in our country but the future.
