Constantinou Winery
Was founded in 1992 by Costas Constantinou, an ambitious young businessman born in Pera Pedi village, located on the outskirts of Limassol District in Cyprus. The winery initially started out with the production of liqueurs, one of them, the Coffee Liqueur which was a huge success and is still being sold today. A few years later, Constantinou wanted to expand his liqueur business further and he decided to explore the world of wines. In 2000 he produced his first white dry wine named “Ayioklima”. The first harvest took place in a small stone-built house in Pera Pedi Village. Due to increased production and success of the business, in August 2009 the winery was relocated to a brand new building of 800sm.

The Grape
Cab.Sauvignon
The most famous red wine grape in the world and one of the most widely planted.

It is adaptable to a wide range of soils, although it performs particularly well on well-drained, low-fertile soils. It has small, dusty, black-blue berries with thick skins that produce deeply coloured, full-bodied wines with notable tannins. Its spiritual home is the Médoc and Graves regions of Bordeaux where it thrives on the well-drained gravel-rich soils producing tannic wines with piercing blackcurrant fruits that develop complex cedarwood and cigar box nuances when fully mature.

The grape is widely planted in California where Cabernet Sauvignon based wines are distinguished by their rich mixture of cassis, mint, eucalyptus and vanilla oak. It is planted across Australia and with particular success in Coonawarra where it is suited to the famed Terra Rossa soil. In Italy barrique aged Cabernet Sauvignon is a key component in Super Tuscans such as Tignanello and Sassicaia, either on its own or as part of a blend with Sangiovese.
