A family wine shop in Limassol, with no counter.
Vineatitaly is a family wine boutique in Limassol that exists online and in the back of a van. That is not a compromise; it is the plan.

Why there is no shop
Most wine in Cyprus arrives by the pallet through an importer, sits in a warehouse, and reaches you with three margins on top. We wanted the opposite: a short list bought by the case, direct from the people who made it, sold at a price that still makes sense.
So there is no shop. No counter, no rent, no staff standing around on a Tuesday afternoon. There is a website, a cool room, a van, and a phone that is answered from nine to seven.
The Italian list
The Italian wines come from eleven estates, most of them under ten hectares. We taste the vintage in their cellar, take what they can spare, and when it is gone the name comes off the site. We do not restock just to keep the page full.
Bordeaux and Champagne
Nobody buys Margaux at the château door. The Bordeaux and the Champagne reach us through négociants and importers we have bought from for a long time. Every case ships from bonded storage with its provenance documented, which matters more the older and dearer the bottle gets.
The van
We deliver ourselves. The bottles are at your door within 24 hours of your order; the driver messages when he is twenty minutes away and checks an ID at the door. Paphos and Larnaca are on the list for next year, when a second van makes sense.
What you can hold us to
- Tasted first
- Nothing goes on the list untasted. If we would not open it at home, we do not sell it.
- Priced honestly
- Cyprus VAT is in every price. Delivery is a flat fee per zone, free above a threshold you can see.
- Fixed if wrong
- Broken bottle, new bottle. Corked bottle, full refund. Say so and it is done.
