Plakota is a vibrant red blend from Vouni Panayia, uniting Cyprus’s dominant local grape Mavro with the island’s noble red variety Maratheftiko. Though still modest in vineyard plantings, Maratheftiko is widely regarded as Cyprus’s finest red grape, yielding wines of depth, soft tannins, and natural richness. In Plakota, these two native varieties come together in a style that is intentionally fresh, fruit-driven, and beautifully approachable.
Short, gentle extractions preserve the bright, juicy character of the fruit while avoiding any influence of oak, allowing the purity of the grapes to shine. The result is a lively and expressive wine with vivid red-berry flavors, soft texture, and a refreshing lift. It’s youthful, energetic, and immediately enjoyable—an authentic expression of Cypriot terroir with impressive concentration and clarity.
Perfect for casual drinking, Mediterranean dishes, or simply enjoying on its own, Plakota captures the charm, directness, and natural vibrancy that define Vouni Panayia’s mountain vineyards.
