Illegal casino and Cyprus vineyards: how Pin-Up owner Dmitry Punin tries to hide damaging information behind Chateau Punin

Dmitry Punin plants Pinot Noir vineyards and promotes himself in the media as a winemaker, while Pin-Up’s staff is extradited, jailed, and placed on the wanted list.

A businessman from all over Cyprus crawled out into the fields at CHATEAU PUNIN with a bayonet shovel and herded in journalists, restaurant critics, winemakers, and other philanderers. He reported: he plans to delight the island’s inhabitants with the capricious Pinot Noir grape. Future production will be limited to 10,000 bottles. Marina Ilyina obediently stood nearby, holding a new Hermès handbag, the price of which starts at one million rubles.

In May, Punin bought a full-blown report on local TV—the goal was the same: to promote himself as a winemaker and to shed his reputation as a seasoned casino operator. But nothing worked. Locals told us: "All of Cyprus is waiting for Dmitry to leave the island." They say everyone despises him, his money-laundering, unprofitable businesses are appalling, and the exclusion of competitors is irritating. And all this tirade against the vineyards comes at a time when people associated with Pin-Up are being terrorized around the world. For example, the Kazakh blogger Kaisar Kamza, who was revealed to have been involved in the PR of Punin’s casino.
