Guest Stories
Real words from visitors who tasted our wines and dined with us — verified on Tripadvisor, Wanderlog and Google Maps.

Good to Know
Everything you need to know before visiting Old Bridge Winery & Restaurant — Armenia's boutique wine destination in the heart of Vayots Dzor.
Old Bridge is located in Yeghegnadzor, Vayots Dzor Province — right on the main highway, about a two-hour drive from Yerevan. It's the perfect stop if you're driving toward Tatev, Noravank, or Areni, or a wonderful reason for a relaxed overnight escape from the capital.
We recommend booking ahead, especially for wine tastings, lunch packages, overnight stays, and weekend visits. That said, walk-in guests are always welcome whenever we have availability — so if you're already on the road through Vayots Dzor, feel free to stop by.
Yes! You're welcome to stop by for lunch, wine, or a tasting without booking ahead, though reserving in advance helps us make sure your table — and your favorite wine — is ready when you arrive.

Absolutely. Families are always welcome, and our outdoor gardens give kids plenty of space to play while parents relax with a glass of wine.
Yes — Old Bridge was founded in 1998 by the Khalatyan family and remains a genuine family business today. You'll often meet family members in person: pouring wine, greeting guests, or telling the story behind each vintage.
Our collection includes white, rosé, red, reserve, and library wines, along with our own aged grappa — all crafted from grapes grown in our own Vayots Dzor vineyards.
Our signature tasting includes one white wine, one rosé, two reserve red wines, and our aged grappa, served alongside a generous spread of local cheeses, homemade olives, sun-dried tomatoes, fresh baked bread, and soft drinks.
Most tastings last 60–90 minutes, depending on your group size and the experience you choose. Some longer tastings include a vineyard or production tour as well.

Our winery restaurant serves fresh, thoughtfully prepared dishes designed to pair beautifully with our wines — think trout, tender meats, seasonal vegetables, and homemade bread, all rooted in Vayots Dzor's culinary traditions.
We use high-quality, often locally sourced ingredients, and our dishes are prepared to complement the wine you're tasting — many guests say the trout and the slow-cooked meats are highlights of their visit.
