Mov Prephylloxera Mavro 2020

Poured through a Venturi into a decanter prior to service. For a grape that has traditionally been used to make less-than-serious fortified wines, this was quite a serious Mavrodaphne indeed. From ungrafted vines, the 2020 “Mov” pours purple in color. A touch reticent early, this is developing and only beginners to open after about 30min after which it revealed it’s layered red and dark fruits, earth, cocoa, purple flowers, minerals and soft baking spices. Structure was medium+. Balanced and paired well with our beef and grilled eggplant. Only 800 bottles produced. — 7 months ago

Sclavos-Zisimatos LTD

Monambeles Mavrodaphne 2020

Even better with lamb. Intense earthiness (reminds me of good Aglianico but austere like a young cab franc), touch of barnyard, framed by a graceful body with finer tannins than the nose would lead to believe. — 2 months ago

Rouvalis

Tsigello Mavrodaphne Aigialia (Unfiltered) 2020

Extraordinary and flavorful Greek wine. Unlike anything else: flavors of balsamic, bell pepper, and rosemary. All of the flavor is in the finish. Perfect with moussaka. — a year ago

Domaine Foivos

Nautilus Dry Red Mavrodaphne 2017

A lovely Greek wine. Raisin aromas that are almost port like. Prune, plum, and smoke notes. A great change of pace and if you like other old world wines, I'd recommend you give this a try. Good value at $18. — 3 years ago
