The wines & the people
If you are a winelover, I would highly recommend visiting this winery! Akis, Marcos and Marleen (who is Dutch) are running this family owned boutique winery and they are amazing people. During a tour on the winery they told us everything about the wines and the winemaking process (and besides, they gave us a lot of tips what to do on Cyprus). After the tour we got the chance to taste a selection of their wines. In my opinion they make one of the best wines Cyprus has to offer! Do not forget to try the Rosé (Lefkada-Cabernet Franc), it is absolutely fabulous. We bought a few bottles to enjoy during our holidays and even brought some bottles home to the Netherlands (Marleen made sure it was packaged well). If you want to do a winetour and tasting do not forget to make a reservation. Definitely worth a visit and we are coming back the next time we are in Cyprus!
