Nestled in the scenic village of Agios Epifanios Orinis in the Nicosia District, Povis Winery is a family-run boutique winery with deep historical roots. Established by George Nicolaou, a fifth-generation winemaker, the winery continues a tradition of viticulture that has been passed down through generations. The estate is set within a vineyard on the sloping hills of the village, offering a picturesque setting that reflects the natural beauty of the Cypriot countryside. Povis Winery is not only a place for wine production but also a testament to the enduring legacy of Cypriot winemaking, blending historical significance with artisanal craftsmanship.
Povis Winery specializes in producing wine and zivania (a traditional Cypriot spirit) from local grape varieties cultivated in the family’s 200-year-old vineyards. These old vines, nurtured by generations of the Nicolaou family, contribute to the unique character and quality of the wines. In addition to wines, Povis produces limited-production olive oil from Koroneiki and local olive varieties, grown and harvested primarily by hand. The winery’s commitment to traditional methods and sustainable practices ensures that each product, whether wine, zivania, or olive oil, captures the authentic flavors and aromas of the region. Visitors to Povis can experience the warmth of Cypriot hospitality and explore a range of products that embody the rich agricultural heritage of Agios Epifanios.
