Nestled in the picturesque village of Omodos at an altitude of 900 meters in the Troodos Mountains, Ktima Gerolemo is a family-owned winery established in 1987. Situated on a sprawling 127-acre estate in gently rolling countryside, the winery is part of Cyprus’s designated wine routes organized by the Cyprus Tourism Organisation. Founded by two siblings who inherited their passion for quality wine from their father, Mr. Gerolemos, the winery combines modern winemaking techniques with time-honored Cypriot traditions to produce exceptional wines that reflect the region’s unique terroir.
The winery offers visitors a comprehensive experience into Cypriot winemaking, featuring guided tours through state-of-the-art production facilities where guests can learn about the entire winemaking process from grape harvesting to fermentation and aging. The highlight of any visit is the wine tasting experience, where visitors can sample a curated selection of the winery’s finest wines, including crisp white wines, bold reds, delicate rosés, and sweet dessert wines. Tastings are often accompanied by local delicacies such as cheeses, olives, and traditional Cypriot bread, creating an authentic gastronomic experience. The winery also produces Zivania Oaked, a traditional Cypriot spirit aged in oak barrels for six months, offering a unique taste of local heritage.
Beyond wine, Ktima Gerolemo embodies warm Cypriot hospitality and serves as a cultural hub celebrating the island’s winemaking heritage. The winery hosts special events including wine brunching on Sundays, wine masterclasses, and private events such as weddings. With breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding vineyards and the charming village of Omodos nearby, featuring cobblestone streets, historic monasteries, and artisan shops, a visit to Ktima Gerolemo offers the perfect blend of wine appreciation, cultural exploration, and natural beauty.
