The history of winemaking in Cyprus is very old, one of the oldest in the world, dating back some 6000 years. This cultural heritage is the oldest in the whole Mediterranean basin and leads to the assumption that Cyprus triggered the spread of winemaking to Greece, Italy, France and other regions.
The CTO (Cyprus Tourism Organization) has organised seven wine routes where visitors can get acquainted with the island’s enchanting and humble wineries. The CTO has also published a Cyprus Wine Route Guide which is available to the public to all the tourist information offices.
The Cyprus Wine Route 2 – “VOUNI AMBELITIS” passes through the villages of Mesogi, Tsada, Stroumpi, Polemi, Psathi, Kannaviou, Asprogia, Pano Panagia, Chrysorrogiatissa, Agia Moni, Statos-Agios Fotios, Koilineia, Galataria, Pentalia, Amargeti, Eledio, Agia Varvara, Choulou, Lemona, Kourdaka, Letymbou and Kali. A trail to explore the villages and sights along the wine route, hopefully adding more over time. The Lazarou family have been in Choulou for the last 20 years and are currently trying to improve the area. For the Cache, you can park just after on the side of the road.
