How to avoid too much of that evil word ‘screen time’. Not so easy these days with two little kids demanding your attention 24/7, while being confined to our own house. We are lucky to be able to walk in the fields around our house without breaking our ‘social distancing’ commitment. We are also lucky to have very friendly neighbours with lots of fruit trees in their garden. The only one left with an

Yes it is the ‘art of winemaking’, that makes a good wine, we all know that. But that is not the type of art that I want to share with you in this story. I would like to write about ‘art’ as we know it; fine arts, paintings, drawings, expressions of creativity and philosophy. Does being surrounded by those during wine production help make a better wine? Nobody knows, but it certainly creates an
Sometimes people ask me: ‘Is it not boring to live in a small village in Cyprus as a young and dynamic person? Doesn’t your world become so small?’ I am very happy that I can give them a fully convinced “NO” for an answer. The truth is, at first I did not expect to find a lot of excitement in a rural life and being away from the city. I was afraid to miss out on
From time to time, we would like to share a recipe with you. An all-time favourite of the Zambartas family, something traditional Cypriot or an exciting new discovery in a cookbook. Today’s recipe, is lamb from the oven. Lamb is a classic for anybody that grew up in Cyprus or visits the island frequently. It was rightly so included in a beautiful book called “Cyprus, a culinary journey”. A culinary travel book with recipes of
Today I experienced my first real ‘baptism’ into the tradition of Easter Flaounes. Yes, during my years in Cyprus, I ate them, both homemade and from the bakery. There is no way to escape them during Easter time in Cyprus. The oven baked pastries, stuffed with a mixture of halloumi, anari, herbs, raisins and eggs, are a good savoury snack. However, I never developed a real liking for them. Until today. Today I learned that
I discovered this salad a few years ago in one of my favorite cooking books* and it quickly became a ‘regular’ on the Zambartas’ family table. It is a perfect side dish or starter for a bbq party, but also delicious on its own for a light summer lunch or dinner wit a glass of Rose. The mix of dades and almonds, which give the salad a sweet note, is perfectly balanced by the
The visit of our Australian friends last week to Cyprus, threw Marcos and I back in time 10 years (!), to the place where our story started. Down under, between the vines and kangaroos, Marcos became a winemaker and I entered the Zambartas story. Australia is really at the heart of our winery and family in many ways. It was Marcos bold decision to study winemaking there, instead of in Europe, and fly to the
