We’re warming to the Halloween Spirit and we’ve added this Kyperounda Commandaria to our special Halloween Wine List - How about you?
Cyprus Wines makes it for great surprises. This Xynisteri dry white from Kyperounda still rings fresh from the last vintage. Picture is a mix from a moment at the blue bar in Nicosia, with the Zygi Marina, in Larnaca.
Unveiling some of the Xynisteri 2011, a wine tasting announcing another great vintage.

The trio of wines unveiled recently at Risto La Piazza, with Vasos Manolis, brought some reassurance of the great work that winemakers have done over the winter in overcoming the shortcomings of the Xynisteri harvest conditions this past year. An over all very satisfying feeling how these wines are being embraced locally too.
Wine tasted: Zambartas, Ezousa, Kyperounda vintage 2011
Specials thanks to Vasos Manolis for leading this special Xynisteri Wine hour in Paphos
