Ktima Gerolemo is a destination where the crux of Cypriot wine culture comes alive. Located in the scenic hills of the Troodos Mountains, just right outside the village of Omodos, Ktima Gerolemo established in 1987, is a family-owned estate offering a singular blend of exceptional wines, a winery with breathtaking views, and hosts with a distinguished tradition of hospitality.
At the root of Ktima Gerolemo’s charm is its dedication to crafting wines that reflect the unique character of Cyprus and of the terroir. My personal favourites out of a lot were the Morokanella, a crisp white wine with delicate citrus notes and a sweeter finish, and the Kanella, a warm, unique, limited-release white wine which is only produced in Ktima Gerolemo and nowhere else in the world, with each bottle numbered. These are just a few of the winery’s best produce and one could say they are examples of their commitment to quality from year to year, to excellence but also of their love and respect for the raw ingredients.
These wines are a perfect pairing for the estate’s brunch platters during weekends. Sundays at Ktima Gerolemo are a must, as the winery opens its doors for a weekend brunch that feels like a celebration of life itself. Guests can indulge in the bites, sip fine wine, and unwind in the serene setting of the vineyards while listening to live violin music, and being surrounded by the natural beauty of the Troodos peaks.
WINE IS BOTTLED POETRY

Specifically, the platters offer an inviting selection of traditional Cypriot cheeses, cured meats, local fresh vegetables, and handmade spreads that exemplary to Cyprus’s rich culinary traditions and heritage. The peaceful and the picturesque settings are a truly memorable pastime, sharing meaningful moments with friends or simply relishing the quiet charm of the countryside.
Ktima Gerolemo creates indelible personal anamnesis for visitors who will cherish the memories for many years to come. Whether you enjoy a leisurely brunch, sip their acclaimed Commandaria, or explore the vineyards, the experience is warm, welcoming, and unhurried.
It’s a place where time slows down, and the profound connection with nature and congenial traditions takes center stage in your heart and mind. For those seeking an escape into Cyprus’s winemaking heritage and a slice of serenity, Ktima Gerolemo offers an experience as unforgettable as its wines.
