Wine Road - Dhiarizos Valley

The island’s tradition in wine making is well known, since here is the place where the oldest wine label in the world exists until today, the Commandaria.
And while the same ancient grape varieties are being cultivated and villages still produce wine in the old way, the wine industry of the island has evolved, modernized and expanded.
When you visit Paphos you will be happy to discover a series of charming wineries and viniculture areas.
