With the participation of eight Cypriot wineries, Cyprus will be present for the first time at the wine event Greek Wine Day 2026, which will take place on Saturday, October 31, 2026, at Hotel Albani in Florence, Italy.

This year’s edition, the fifth in a row, holds special significance for Cypriot wine production, as it includes wineries from Cyprus in its program for the first time. This offers Italian industry professionals, wine journalists, sommeliers, and wine lovers the opportunity to experience firsthand the richness and quality of Cypriot wines.

A total of 32 wineries will participate in the event—24 from Greece and 8 from Cyprus—presenting representative labels and showcasing the winemaking tradition and modern dynamics of both countries.

The eight participating Cypriot wineries are:

  1. ANAMA Boutique Winery
  2. Christoudia Winery
  3. Evangelou Winery
  4. Krasopoulin Winery
  5. Makarounas Vineyards
  6. Mystes Winery
  7. K&K Vasilikon Winery
  8. Vouni Panayia Winery

The Cypriot presence at Greek Wine Day represents a significant opportunity for outreach and international exposure for the domestic wine sector, contributing to the promotion of the quality characteristics of Cypriot wines and highlighting Cyprus’s unique wine identity. At the same time, participation in the event creates prospects for developing new commercial partnerships and strengthening the presence of Cypriot wineries in the Italian market, one of the most important and demanding wine markets globally.

Special emphasis will be placed on promoting Cyprus’s centuries-old wine tradition, indigenous grape varieties such as Xynisteri and Maratheftiko, as well as Commandaria, a historic wine holding a prominent place in Cypriot wine heritage.

The event is organized at the initiative of Charis Papandreou, with this year’s edition held under the support of the Region of Tuscany. The Ministry of Energy, Commerce and Industry of the Republic of Cyprus, through the Cyprus Trade Center in Athens, supports efforts for international promotion and the enhanced outward orientation of Cypriot businesses, aiming to expand their export capabilities and build new business partnerships.

The participation of the eight wineries in Greek Wine Day 2026 is expected to contribute to the further recognition of Cypriot wine abroad and highlight Cyprus as a producer of wines of high quality and distinct identity.
