Some Armenian Wine recommendations:

Since it came up in some of the comments, here is what I think of Armenian wine. Try the plain "Areni" label, the Gandzak, or for half the price and not too bad, the Earth Blood. All are good dry Armenian wines. For a good red dry Karabakh wine, try the Martuni. At 35 cents a bottle in Karabakh, you won't regret it! For a sweet Armenian red try Anoush, it was not bad for a sweet (or was it semi-sweet?), which I don't usually like. And finally, for the best white wine I have ever had (thanks to Vartan Marashlyan), try the White Ijevan. BTW, good normal wine in Armenia is usually around $2/bottle, with cheaper ones costing half that. Of course there are fancier wines starting at $3, but I don't know anything about those.

On a totally unrelated note, there is great news that the Greeks are interested in selling their 90% share of the Armenian Telephone Company, Armentel. IF the right buyer comes along, especially an Armenian, there is a bit of hope the communications (telephone call and internet line) prices could drop dramatically. This would be a great boost to the IT industry and the connectivity of Armenia as a whole to the world. Otherwise this monopoly the Greeks own has another decade before competition is allowed...
