From the first wine drinkers
making merry across the mosaic floors of the House of Dionysus in Paphos, to the

comforted (even cured) travellers passing through the island on pilgrimage to
the Holy Land, the muleteers selling wine in goat skins in the 19th century, and
even the proliferation of new wineries un the last couple decades, the wines of
Cyprus have certainly built up a fascinating history. It is this enthralling
story that "The Book of Cyprus Wine" sets out to tell.

Abbe Mariti Giovanni Filippo,
a naturalist and academician, was born in Florence in 1736, and died there in
1806. In writing this charming little book, which tells us all we need to know
about wine-making in Cyprus in the 18th century, his aim was “not only to
satisfy the curiosity if the dilettante interested in the pleasant, generous
Cyprus wines and to give instructions how to plant the vines here and see them
thrive, but also to suggest ways of making and storing wines.”

Mrs. Julie Lymberopulos Panagopoulos, wife of the Ambassador of Greece in
