Mavrodaphne is a sweet, full-bodied dark red dessert wine with medium acidity. Made from black grapes in the northern Peloponnese, it has the aroma and flavor of coffee, caramel, raisins, chocolate and plums – allowing it to pair well with cheese, nuts, pies and desserts that are made with cherries, apples, pecans, or apricots, biscotti, and vanilla ice cream.
