Martiros Yavrunts was born in Bitlis in 1902 in a family of a winemaker.  During the years of the Armenian Genocide, the Yavrunts family migrates to the city of Marseille in France first, and then to Burgundy.  Continuing his father’s work, Martiros dedicates his entire life to winemaking, dreaming of the day to make wine from grapes grown in his homeland.  His dream remains a dream.  A century later, by creating this wine, his descendants honor the winemaker and introduce us to his history through wine.
