Kyperounta winery
Situated in this idyllic setting and designed to the specifications of experienced winemakers, the Kyperounda Winery is built on three levels in order to take advantage of gravity to move the grape juice in the gentlest possible way. The winery’s underground cellar holds two hundred and fifty 225lt oak barrels, in which the wine of Kyperounda matures and develops character.
The winery is located at Kyperounda, in the Pitsilia area of the Troodos range, 75 km from Nicosia and 50 km from Limassol. It prides itself for the unusually high altitude (at 1400 metres it is the highest in Europe and one of the highest of the world). It was setup in the late 1990s by a few local grape producers and in the year 2000, Photos Photiades Group joined as a major shareholder.
Today the company is owned by more than 40 shareholders with control and management placed in the hands of the Photos Photiades Group. Their expertise combines the knowledge in beverage distribution and the art of wine making. This blends with the support of a most capable and talented young oenologist, Mr Minas Mina, a formula that has succeeded in delivering wines of the highest quality. The production capacity of the winery is about 300,000 bottles.
