Vlassides Cabernet Sauvignon 75cl

Description

Vlassides Cabernet Sauvignon 75cl is a Cyprus red wine from Vlassides Winery, made from grapes grown in selected non-irrigated vineyards in the areas of Koilani and Vouni on Mount Afamis. The official winery description presents it as a complex and multifaceted wine with soft tannins that reflect its ageing in barrel and bottle, while your own listing describes it as complex, full-bodied, and multi-faceted with well-balanced acidity and strong but approachable tannins.

This is clearly positioned as a more serious varietal Cabernet Sauvignon rather than a simple everyday red. The official winery page states that the wine matures for one year in French oak barrels followed by one year in bottle, and that it is bottled unfiltered. Across reviewed tasting references, the profile centres on dark berries, green pepper, chocolate, spice, oak, and a long structured finish, giving it a richer and more polished identity than a routine young red. This is an inference based on the reviewed winery and retailer descriptions.

Collector’s Note

This is not a rarity-led collector wine, but it has strong appeal as a serious Cyprus varietal red with cellar potential and a more premium presentation than an everyday bottle. It is better viewed as an enthusiast’s Cabernet Sauvignon rather than a scarcity-driven release, with much of its appeal coming from the vineyard sourcing, oak-and-bottle maturation, unfiltered presentation, and the wine’s ability to age further. This is an inference based on the reviewed winery and merchant descriptions.
