This wine is clear and bright in appearance with an attractive golden colour. Favaios is known for the typical aromas of the muscatel grape, which is very rich and aromatic. The aromas of the grape can be tasted, especially the floral notes, citrus fruits like orange, tangerine, and lime, along with honey and caramel. The mouthfeel is quite sweet and velvety, evoking the taste of honey and fruit jams.
The classic Favaios is the youngest muscatel marketed by Adega de Favaios, but it is also the one that has been
produced for the longest time – almost ever since the company was founded. It is made in the traditional way under
intense skin maceration to extract as much as possible from the characteristic aromatic components of this grape
variety. This contact with the skins goes on for 3 or 4 days until fermentation has to be stopped with the addition of
spirits to the wine. This mixture of partly fermented must and spirit is then aged for three years during which it
gains harmony and complexity until the blend is produced for consumers to enjoy.
