The wines produced by Malagousia have a medium pale, lemon green colour and a very powerful, expressive nose with hints of peaches, green bell pepper, fresh herbs, and flowers. It has a round, robust flavour that is always fresh and a somewhat high alcohol content.

Late harvest grapes are used to make sweet variants since they are even more fragrant and thick. The majority of Malagousia wines are produced in inert vats, including stainless steel tanks, which helps to maintain their appealing aromatic qualities. In order to increase their complexity and rich taste, certain samples are fermented and aged in oak barrels.

Malagousia is a grape that is thought to have come from the western region of Central Greece (Aitoloakarnania) and is primarily used to make sweet wines. Today, it has expanded not just to the Greek mainland but also to a number of islands, including Rhodes and Paros. It participates in the PDO Rhodes (ΠΟΠ Ρόδoς) wines in Rhodes.
