Driven by his love and passion for wine, Sophocles Vlassides realized his lifelong dream by establishing Vlassides Winery in 1998. The quality of Vlassides Winery has always been based on a commitment to select the finest fruits. The vineyards are located in the picturesque region of Kilani village, just south of Troodos. The altitude of the vineyards ranges from 700m to 1100m above sea level, and the soil is mainly calcareous.

Vlassides Winery commitment to quality has been recognized in a range of wine competitions. The most notable are the Grand Gold Medal of the Thessaloniki Wine Competition 2004 for Cabernet Sauvignon 2000; the Gold Medal for Shiraz 2003 (12 months oaked) at the Brussels Wine Competition 2006; and the Grand Gold Medal for Shiraz 2006 at the Third Cyprus Wine Competition in 2008. The new building of Vlassides Winery was conceived and constructed by Heracles Papachristou. It is situated between Koilani village and Vouni village, in a 50 acres vineyard, called Koloni. The winery was designed according to the functional use of space and machinery.
