Vlassides Shiraz 75cl, 15%

Description

Vlassides Shiraz 75cl, 15% is a full-bodied Cyprus red wine from Vlassides Winery, made from Shiraz grown in non-irrigated vineyards in Kilani, Vouni, and Pachna. The official winery description says it is a rich wine with soft tannins and that it matures in French oak barrels for twelve months, while your site listing confirms the 75cl bottle size and 15% ABV.

Your site further describes the wine as almost black in colour, with intense aromas of black cherry and blackcurrant, enhanced by vanilla and smokiness from ageing in French oak barrels for eight to nine months. Across reviewed sources, the style is clearly positioned as full-bodied yet velvety, with ripe fruit, spice, and polished tannins rather than a lean or sharply rustic structure. It looks especially suited to customers who want a richer Cyprus red with depth, softness, and proper ageing potential. The final sentence is an inference based on the reviewed tasting descriptions and winery positioning.

Collector’s Note

This is not a rarity-led collector wine, but it has strong appeal as a serious Cyprus red with established winery reputation and cellar potential. It is better viewed as a drinker’s and enthusiast’s bottle rather than a scarcity-driven release, with much of its appeal coming from the combination of non-irrigated vineyard fruit, oak maturation, and a rich yet polished Shiraz profile. This is an inference based on the reviewed winery description, ageing note, and tasting profile.
