Vasilikon Winery is one of the first local wineries of Cyprus, established in 1993 by the brothers Heracles, Georgios and Giannis Kyriakides. Its successful operation is based on the excellent qual¬ity grapes of Kathikas and the Akamas Laona areas of Pafos, which are mainly picked from the family’s vineyards. Furthermore, the knowledge, dedication, and care exhibited by these winemak¬ers, together with the technologically advanced special machinery used, make Vasilikon one of the most accomplished wineries in Cyprus.
The indigenous varieties of Maratheftiko and Lefkada and the fine varieties of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Shiraz and Merlot are cultivated with loving care in vineyards of Paphos compose the family tree of this wine.
This balanced and full wine, is distinguished for its purple and deep colour, its vivid aroma, its fruity taste and its perfumed after taste. It is the best accompaniment to meat and semi-hard cheeses.
Enjoy it between 16 – 18°C.
