Mavrodaphne is one of Greece’s most respected black grape varieties, capable of producing exceptional, world-class wines. Particularly noteworthy is the Mov by Petrakopoulos, which showcases the grape's potential alongside the region's pre-phylloxera vine treasures.

With its vibrant flavours and captivating aromatic profile, this wine is an exquisite companion to slow-roasted goat and can age beautifully in the cellar for several years.
