Santa Irene Winery

Santa Irene winery is the fulfilment of a man’s dream. Daniel Anastasis left his beloved village Farmakas, as a young man for Australia and subsequently made a life in South Africa with his wife Theoni and their children. He cherished the memories of his childhood and returned to Farmakas, Cyprus to embrace what he found. Daniel has memories of how his grandfather used to take his homemade wines and zivania in goatskin bags to Nicosia by donkey, the vision was strong one he couldn’t let go, but it was when he walked through the forgotten ruins of his grandfathers derelict home and saw the pitharka (storage jars) he knew what it was that he was to do.
