Favaios Commemorative Edition 70 years Moscatel do Douro

Douro
This limited edition combines the youthfulness and freshness of the youngest muscatels with the delicacy and harmony of the oldest wines, creating a wine that perfectly represents the best of the muscatels from our Favaios Plateau. With great aromatic intensity, the floral and fruity notes of muscatel stand out, as well as toasted and spicy notes. The flavour is a Moscatel where balance and elegance stand out, all very well balanced by lively acidity. It finishes with great complexity and persistence.

Product details

Winemaking:
After carefully selecting the best grapes, they were macerated and fermented as they were traditionally in the region. The alcoholic fermentation is very short, with most of the must being bled off and the brandy being added as soon as the skins come up. A small part of the must continues to ferment and macerate with the skins for a few more days, and only later is this very aromatically rich must fortified. The first and second musts are then blended and stored in old wooden barrels and vats where the wine ages slowly, refining its bouquet over several years. The long years of ageing in wood help to further develop and complex the wine's aromatic profile as well as its palate. This wine celebrating the 70th anniversary of Adega Cooperativa de Favaios is a blend that brings together seven of these exceptional muscatels, having chosen a harvest from each of the last seven decades. The years selected were 1964, 1975, 1980, 1999, 2007, 2011 and 2020, thus creating a Muscat that represents our entire history and is also a tribute to all our employees and associated winegrowers.
