Punin Group proudly announces the acquisition of the renowned Hadjiantonas Winery, located in the village of Parekklisia, Limassol, and its complete transformation into Château Punin, Cyprus’ first winery built in the true château tradition. This visionary estate will become the future home of an exceptional Pinot Noir wine, set to debut in 2030.

The acquisition is a key milestone in Punin Group’s strategic expansion into the wine and spirits industry, where innovation and advanced technology are thoughtfully paired with a reverence for centuries-old winemaking heritage.

A major reconstruction and modernisation initiative is planned for the estate: the expansion of facilities and aging cellars, installation of state-of-the-art equipment, the establishment of proprietary Pinot Noir vineyards, and the creation of a Premier Grand Wine, a label destined to elevate Cyprus’ presence on the global wine map.

The cultivation of Pinot Noir in Cyprus is a bold and pioneering endeavour, uniting acclaimed winemakers, agronomists and wine critics from around the world. Château Punin aims to revolutionise the local industry. For the first time, Cyprus will serve as the terroir for producing one of the world’s most refined and challenging grape varieties.

“Château Puninis raising the bar for Cypriot winemaking,” noted Group Founder Dmitry Punin. “By introducing the château model and launching Pinot Noir production, we are merging tradition with bold innovation to redefine what Cyprus can offer the world in fine wine.”

With Château Punin, Dmitry Punin is not only introducing a new level of winemaking excellence to Cyprus, but also establishing a world-class château model, where every stage of production — from hand-harvesting the grapes to bottling — is carried out on-site.

This integrated, estate-driven approach, emblematic of the most prestigious wine regions in the world, guarantees meticulous quality control and an authentic expression of the terroir.

Furthermore, housed in an architecturally-significant building, Château Punin will stand as a cultural and design landmark, in a seamless fusion of tradition, craftsmanship and innovation.
