  ZAMBARTAS RANGE

  Maratheftiko is a very unique grape because, unlike most varieties, it is not self-pollinating. This means it needs another grape variety planted nearby in the vineyard in order to set fruit properly. Without that, yields are very low and unpredictable. This is one of the reasons Maratheftiko almost disappeared for many years, it’s difficult to grow and requires extra care in the vineyard. Today, with better understanding and vineyard management, it’s recognised as one of Cyprus’ most exciting indigenous red grapes, producing wines with depth, freshness and great ageing potential.

  ZAMBARTAS RANGE

  Promara is very special to us because it connects directly to the work of Akis Zambartas. In the 1980s, long before indigenous varieties were fashionable, Akis travelled across Cyprus researching old vineyards and rediscovering grape varieties that had almost disappeared. Promara was one of them. At the time, very few people believed these grapes had a future, but today they are a key part of Cypriot wine identity. Whilst Promara still makes for less than 1% of the grapes grown on this island, it has grown in popularity at the winery. Originally starting with only 450 bottles for the first vintage, we now produce 5,500 bottles per year..

  SINGLE VINEYARD RANGE

  Planted in 1921, our Margelina vineyard is one of the very few remaining ungrafted centenarian vineyards in Cyprus. A living witness to the island’s history, rooted on the “Windy Hill” of Agios Nikolaos, overlooking the Troodos mountains.

  The organically certified vineyard is predominantly planted with Mavro, alongside 5 other indigenous Cypriot varieties.

  For nearly a century, this vineyard endured wars, abandonment, climate change, and shifting wine trends. Just as it was close to being forgotten, the vineyard was rediscovered, carefully restored, and given new life. Today, she provides the grapes for our Single Vineyard Margelina, a wine that speaks of resilience, heritage, and place.

  A true gem of Cypriot viticulture.
