Yiannoudi is one of the upcoming local varieties of Cyprus, of which we have planted two vineyards. This Mataro–Yiannoudi is one of our most food-friendly wines. It has enough depth for grilled meats and slow-cooked dishes, but also enough acidity to work beautifully with lighter Mediterranean food, herbs and olive-oil-based dishes. It pairs perfectly with Cypriot meze.
– Fruity, medium bodied, soft tannins –

This blend is a founder’s blend, reflecting Akis Zambartas’ long-standing admiration for Lefkada, a variety he particularly valued for its character and depth. Although Lefkada is often considered an indigenous Cypriot variety, it actually originates from Greece, where it is known as Vertzami. First brought to Cyprus in 1957, it now accounts for 1.2% of the grapes grown on the island. Shiraz, by comparison, represents 4.5%, making it the fourth most widely planted grape variety in Cyprus.
