TUSHPA brings together Armenia’s native grapes and passionate winemaking in one of the world's most ancient terroirs, the Ararat Valley. TUSHPA is the dream of Mihran Manasserian who studied winemaking at the Armenian National Agrarian University during the Soviet Union era and worked for different wineries. In 1992, after the Soviet Union collapsed, he bought the land and built the dream of TUSHPA from the ground up nestled below the Biblical Mt. Ararat.
